MVD Diet and Treats We have been doing a lot of learning as our little man Elliott has been diagnosed with MVD. He is 5 years old and 5 lbs. The kd food he is on is great and he is doing very well on it. We baked some of the canned food into little treats for him but he is getting very tired of the same thing. He loves his treats when he does the potty outside!! and we hope to keep him engaged with some new options for treats. Nothing in the store is low or no protein, we started giving him some pieces of apple, carrots, and sweet potato. Does anyone know if it ok to give him dried options of fruits and veggies. We know to stay away from grapes is there anything else that we should not give him? Thank you for your help. |
I think there are some old threads around here about this. Might be hard to find though... You're on the right track. Peeled apples, carrots, and sweet potato are good choices. I don't know the guaranteed analysis of Fruitables off hand, but you might look into those. Buddy Biscuits may be an option (I just don't like the company). If your pup does not have neuro symptoms/hepatic encephalopathy, you have a lot of options. You could get a small bag of L/D kibble as treats. |
So glad that Elliott is doing well. Just wanted to tell you not to forget about green beans. Mine love them. I'm not sure about the fruit, as mine like veggies better. I do give mine the Zuke's peanut butter flavor small treats -- not a whole bunch, but 3or 4 a day. They might have too much protein for Elliot. I also found some tiny tiny treats I used for potty treats called Little Stars. They were very low protein. And you may already be using the Milk Thistle supplements, but if not, I would highly suggest them. I get the Vetra Liver chews from Entirely Pets. I give her 1/4 chew every morning on empty stomach. Last BAT I had done was much lower and the vet told me to keep doing what I was doing. Good luck to you and Elliot. And keep updating! |
We do well with fruitables, pecan or apple flavor. We only feed the crunchy ones. |
