-- Olesia, owned by Izzy-45lb SWD, Diagnosed at 1.5 years old - TLI results 1.3, Stable almost 7 yrs! Once stable, was able to reduce enzymes to only 1/2 tsp of Enzymes with each meal, but after almost 4 years of stabilization... had to increase the amount of enzymes to 3/4 teaspoon with each meal. Feed various grain-free kibble+real meat, 6x pancreatin enzymes from EnzymeDiane. I give 1 tsp of coconut oil one day and 1 tsp salmon oil next day, and also give canned sardines packed without salt or canned herring for extra omega oils.

Thanks but if it wasn't for all of you and your EPI dogs... there would be no calendar nor funds to send Dr. Clark! So the thanks really belongs to each of you! | |

HAPPY NEW YEAR OLESIA AND YOUR FURRY FRIENDS. THANKS FOR DOING ALL THE HARD WORK AND DEVOTING YOUR PRECIOUS TIME INTO THE EPI CALENDAR. I CAN'T WAIT TO PUT SUGAR'S SUNRISE PIC (MARCH) IN A PRETTY FRAME. BY THE WAY THE SWITCHOVER TO WELLNESS CORE TURKEY HAS BEEN A SUCCESS WITH SUGAR'S POOPERS BUT SHE STILL APPEARS TO BE HUNGRY ALL THE TIME SEARCHING THE FLOOR FOR CRUMBS OF ANY TYPE. TAKE CARE AND THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK.

Betty ~ I think you mis-named Sugar..... me thinks "Hoover" , or "Dyson" "Eureka " or "Dustbuster", ... just might have been a more ... should we say "be-fitting" name for Miss Sugar | |
