Re: Sudden increase in grass eating

Thanks, Jill. Her stools do not look as firm as they used to be. I believe this has coincided with her grass eating. I am thinking about increasing her B12 and maybe then her enzymes if the B12 increase doesn't help. I've read on this forum that dogs can sometimes dip back into major EPI systems aft...

Sudden increase in grass eating

My 12.5 year old pup with EPI has suddenly started eating grass on every walk. I am not sure if I should increase her B12 or enzymes. She has grass in her stool. I'm thinking she wants to make herself throw up. Do any EPI dog owners get regular edemas for their pups? She was so backed up before I st...

Re: Introducing 12-year-old Lab Shep Mix, Nilla

Nilla is on 1/8 of Tylan every 12 hours based on her Folate test. Her stools were excellent before the Tylan. My vet recommended the Tylan based on her folate levels and some reported gurgling in her stomach. Her energy and mood is great. About a week after being on Tylan, her hair felt coarser. Two...

Introducing 12-year-old Lab Shep Mix, Nilla

My 12-year old lab shepherd mix, Nilla, began loosing weight 1.5 years ago. Last fall, I took her to our regular vet for stomach gurgling and the first gas she had in her life. We always remarked about how she was a dog that never seemed to have gas. The vet gave her antibiotic for a possible stomac...

Re: What are the best enzymes ?

I'm using Pan-tenex 10x enzymes for my yellow lab/shepherd mix who was recently diagnosed at 12 years. It's working well, but I'm not sure if I should be on the watch for anything. I'm crossing my fingers that the great stools the last two months will continue.
