Critter Watching Maezi continues to do extemely well now - Think we have found the magic balance again for her We are out daily now for the long 'Roggin' trips- with no panting or issues of any sort. (Roggin- canadian for running-jogging-walking mixed together lol ) Those critters better watch out now - she is sooooo fast- she runs circles thru the woods - rolls happily in the snow - jumps up onto anything I point at - its great Trial and error gets good results when you keep trying and trying.

-- 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.

Current weight 21.7 lbs (4/13), solid member of the Chunky Monkey Club! Ideal weight around 17, I think, but she's not obese at this weight, so maybe 17 is a little low.

Tylan currently 1x/day. Also takes 1/2 tablet pepcid for stomach upset 2x/day. Primal Defense probiotics 1/8 tsp, 3x/week. Getting bi-weekly B-12 shots.

So glad Maezi is feeling good enough to go out and scare up some wildebeests:) I love the "antenna" ears pics as Olesia called them - and Miss Lulu having a mud bath:) Just trying to picture what Bogart would look like if he had access to mud like that! | |

Maezi has the most beautifulest grey marle shimmer to her coat. Sounds like you have the same issue with berries that we do with muddy water although the latter won't generally make a cattle dog sick. Anyone fancy getting their dig on in the last of the stagnant spring bush pools hmmm...
Lulu is super-smart, a bit plump and very pretty (everybody says so - including her!).
