brown vomit
I joined this forum in February shortly after adopting an EPI dog. I can't thank you all enough for the information you provided- my vet is behind the times and not willing to update. Thanks to you, Flurry is stabilized on Enzyme Diane, with B12 and probiotics. Happily, she does not have the scary o...

Re: timing of seeing effects of changes: which enzyme
To TrixEPIMama- Thanks for the calming words!! Flurry seems to be setttling down with stool between 2 and 3. I won't worry about the occasional yellow parts. Since I am new to this, hearing her history is really helpful. It's nice to know there are some EPI dogs on the easier end of the scale. And f...

Re: timing of seeing effects of changes: which enzyme
Thanks for the replies, Jilbert andOlesia... wait! what? Did you say she can have TREATS??? This is huge! 1. Treats. The only thing that motivates Flurry about training (sit, stay, come, touch, look at me when I say her name) has been food- I set aside some of her meal for this. If I go out in the y...

Re: timing of seeing effects of changes: which enzyme
Thanks very much Olesia and Barb for the very friendly welcome! Though Flurry's stool is sometimes a #2, she often is #3- I can't figure out why. Often the first part to emerge is better, and the last part is yellower and softer (but still shaped like #3.) The shelter told me EPI treatment was reall...

Re: timing of seeing effects of changes: which enzyme
Thanks for the detailed reply! More background: At the shelter, Flurry was stabilized (though with poop more like #3) at 1/2 teaspoon enzyme for one cup of random kibble plus 1/4 can (usually Pedigree or Wellness brand.) So I have increased that some. When I suggested increasing the enzyme, they sai...

timing of seeing effects of changes: which enzyme
I adopted a dog with EPI from a shelter 4 weeks ago. At the shelter, Flurry was stabilized with fecal score typically 3 (based on your photo classification.) With an increase in food and slightly more enzyme (per amount of food), she approached a score of 2 (roughly 2.3 to 2.5.) 1. Which enzyme is t...
