Re: Expressing Anal Glands

Hi Shawn from NJ! I used to live in NJ (Sayreville, Raritan and Englishtown), but have been happily in California for about 45 years now. As I stated I have been using one heaping teaspoon of TopCare Total Fiber clear mixing powder mixed with 1 teaspoon of enzyme Diane per cup of kibble. I do need t...

Re: Expressing Anal Glands

Hi Pam and Tucker, As far as soft stools go I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that maybe all EPI dogs have more, larger and softer stools than their non-EPI counterparts. I'm going to guess that although the enzymes help tremendously our EPI pets still don't digest as well as our non-EPI pet...

Thank You!!! Now I have something to add that I don't remember seei...

Dog Food Prep

Hi All, It's been about a month since my last 2 cents got dropped here, so I missed ya'all!!! A little while ago I asked on this forum about how long the treated dog food would last since Sassy wasn't eagerly eating it anymore. I was told an hour, and that didn't sound right so I asked our expert Di...

Re: Sassy says HI and Thank You!!!

All is still well with Sassy. For the past couple days I cut back on her morning meal to 1 cup because it was taking her forever to finish 2 cups. So I'm thinking she's not that hungry or she would finish it quicker. Her brother is acting the same way. I feed her 2 cups in the evening which she usua...

Re: Sassy says HI and Thank You!!!

Diane responded back with: The differences depend on how much lactose is in the blend to dilute it to potency. Iti s an organic material and sometimes it is fluffier, heavier, lighter or darker. This is a normal change in the material. We only use one supplier to keep things as consitant as we can. ...

Re: Sassy says HI and Thank You!!!

Hi All, Everything is going well. But I do have a question. After 2 orders of 500G's I opened my first order of 1 Kilo from Diane 2 days ago and have noticed it takes about 3 - 4 tablespoons of warm water to get the same consistency I used to get with 2 tablespoons. With 2 tablespoons of warm water ...

Re: Sassy says HI and Thank You!!!

Good Point Elisabeth, I don't know. Just thought I needed to get her tested again. B12 would be a good excuse I guess. Was so proud of my fur-babies this morning!!! Let them out and they started barking at something. We have a family of possums that made their home on my patio cover in the small spa...

Re: Sassy says HI and Thank You!!!

Thank You Olesia, I'm trying to not change things, including food too much. I did over the past 3 days add a duck jerky treat after meals while she has the enzymes fresh in her. So far so good, nothing has changed so far. I'm also dealing with her brother too! He's the finicky eater, so what I give ...

Madam President!!! If it wasn't for you and all the others on this site I'd hate to guess where we'd be right now. You all are life savers in my book!!! Thank YOU!!!
