EPI * Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency

Well Nashville got a pretty good amount of snow, and of course Meega LOVES it and Benji isn't to sure but is having fun until he gets cold.  The little guy needs a sweater, but he is growing like a weed so we will wait for something like that until later.  

Benji trying to figure out what this is all about

Meega coming to me as I have the soccer ball

Our new size comparison of the 2 of them.  Can you tell Benji is growing like a weed?

No clue what Benji is doing, but I thought this shows how much better Meega is looking weight wise!

Benji decided snow is great fun to dig and eat!

Snow Lips!

Meega see's something!?

The neighbor's dog Motley was out and he came over!

What great pictures.     Meega is really beautiful.  She doesnt look too skinny to me.  I hope she gains all her weight back really fast.  Looks like you are doing a wonderful job of taking care of her. 

OMG,.......   I WANT Benji.   What a doll.  Course with the way he is growing, I dont think he will fit on my boat for very long.  LOL  

There is nothing like a puppy, as we all know.  What fun you must have had.

Thanks so very much for the wonderful pictures.  

what a lovely boy what type of dog is he?

Yes Meega is doing wonderful.  If you don't remember she ended up not having EPI and probably SIBO and IBD.  However, ever since we switched to EVO she has done great!  I love the weight she is at now.  She did drop to about 55lbs when all this stuff was going on and started losing muscle mass.  Now we have all of it back and are doing great.

As for Benji he is some sort of boxer mix.  I am not sure what he's mixed with I was thinking maybe some sort or retriever like lab since he has webbed feet, but who knows.  His color is changing to a more red color than it used to be.  

aaaawwww..... so cute and beautiful dogs.....  last snow here my 4 little dogs ran out the back door down the steps and plop....   into 2 feet of snow....  I saw 4 ears ..and 2 tails.... and 2 were missing.....  not sure why but they wanted to do it again....    lol......  love seeing all your pics....   they all look so happy  !!!! 

OMG... Benji IS growing like a weed... WOW! And Meeka looks fabulous.

They sure are having a lot of fun in the snow. Love looking at the pics ... keep them coming!

What great pictures!  Meega is beautiful...she truly looks amazing.  Benji is just as cute as can be.  I love those stocky little front legs of his.  You know, he's going to be a very pretty boy.  Keep the pictures coming. 

Elimly,

What great pictures!   Yikes, the puppy is GROWING and fast! Very cute!

I know I can't believe how fast he's growing!  It's only been 2wks and he's growing in leaps and bounds.  I don't even want to think about how fast he will outgrow his crate!

Hey Emily, you just better keep your fingers crossed that Benji doesn't out-grow Meeka too at the rate he is going!!!!!

Haha I know he will be bigger than Meega as she is only 60lbs.  I just hope he doesn't end up the size of that mastiff there Olesia!  He's HUGE   

Well I ran Benji to the vet yesterday, and he is 23lbs and about 11wks old.  When I adopted him 3wks ago he was 10.7lbs!  The vet thinks he has Bullmastiff in him.  What do you guys think?

Emily, these photo's are priceless.  Both dogs are gorgeous & of course your neighbours dog too.

Loved seeing Meega & Benji romping in the snow.  Looks so nice to us as we're in the middle of another heat wave.  YUK!!!!

Lynn & girls.

What great photos.. they look like they're having a ball in the snow!

HI Emily... Oh My Goodness... can you imagine... what if Benji does indeed have some of those massive Mastiff genes in him....... oh dear... you and Meeka together will be out-weighed

Olesia, I hope he's not THAT BIG!  The vet said he will probably be over 100lbs.  He really does look like he has bullmastiff though.  Luckily they are smaller than the type of mastiff you posted.  People have guessed GSD (black on his back), Boxer (supposably that is what his mom wass) and Bullmastiff.  Who knows what is in the guy, but he is going to be big.   

The pictures are great. Wow, believe it or not, it makes me miss the snow even more.

Yeah they enjoyed their snow last weekend.  I on the other hand am glad it is gone since Meega (the GSD) did not want to come in the house!  Now if my yard would dry out, but we are suppose to get more rain here in Nashville.

Those are super pics and gawd, Benji is going to be some dog. Def looks like bull mastiff in him (nice dogs mastiffs... one breed I always fancied but hubby didn't)

Meeka looks beautiful and you are doing a great job with her.

Val

Well we have another interesting guess on what Benji is!  I take them to Banfeild and the vet that helped me through all of Meega's stuff is the only vet I will see up there.  Anyway she does not see Mastiff.  She sees boxer and Sharpay due to how the winkles are on his face.  Also he is 12wks or so.  Either way I think 23lbs is pretty big for that age.  I guess time will tell what he is though!
