-- 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.

Thank you, thatmeans a lot. I'm sure you reca lthe ups and downs and how worried I was about her. She pulled through. A lot has to do with this site and all the good folks on it. If I can ever be a help to anyone, they can just call my cell. 302.438.0561 If I don't answer leave a message. I have a habit of not answering if I don[t recognize the number. | |

Thank you. Shadow has also gained quite a bit of weight. She's been off the enzymes for a week now and her poop is normal. I never had the test done, I just think she was so under weight because she was so sick with infection. If I see a drastic reduction in weight with her I will get the test done. But so far so good with her | |

I may have spoke to soon. Shadow had a cow pie this morning. Time for the test I guess. Possibly two EPI dogs..............wow. Maybe Diane will do a frequent buyer program on enzymes........j/k Unfortunately Evo is 70 something a bag here due to tax. Good thing is I'm 30 minutes from Delaware where I can get it for 60 a bag and my car will only use maybe 2 bucks in gas there and back | |
