My dog is a one year old german shepherd, her b12's were good with the bloodwork. I bought b12s for her anyway because I heard a lot of epi dogs need extra b12s. Is it okay to give them to her?

Last post

Tucker's B12 was 666, and a staff member said to supplement him anyway, and that he would tinkle out whatever he didn't need. It's not a great expense. --- Pam

Hi friends,

This forum was so helpful when our German Shepard, Max, was initially diagnosed with EPI. Here I am again asking for your guidance. Max is 3 and has just begun having siezures. Due to the frequency, it is likely...

Hi Olesia - Thank you for the link. I will take a look soon! We feed our dogs Fromm food which is supposed to be really good, but I'll double check the carbs. I really appreciate your help!

I have a 1.5 year old Doberman named Odin. He is currently 82 lbs, good weight and a healthy coat. I have his lab results from June of last year showing Spec cPL: 98, TLI: 17.5, B12: 498, Folate: 24 (ref range/units: ug/L)...

Last post

That folate seems fine to me.
Walters lab results showed folate of 52 which is high. The lab says it should be 7-39
