Re: Need help how to feed our EPI dog.

Good morning. There are other novel proteins you can look up and check prices:
Bison
Veal
Pork
Kangaroo
Duck
Lamb
Fish

Unless you know your dog has already been exposed to one or more of the above you could try these.

Just a suggestion. Let us know how the Tylan works.

Re: S. Boulardii

Are you using Creon 5000 or 10,000?

Lisa, I found this on Dr. Judy Morgans blog: " Probiotics – Probiotics support the microbiome of the gut and the immune system. Probiotics are essential if the cause of the condition is bacterial, and antibiotics are prescribed. S boulardii is a probiotic yeast that will survive antibiotics, ma...

Re: Need help how to feed our EPI dog.

Good morning, I am sorry you are having trouble getting Emmas stools under control. The Tylan is given 2 times a day for at least 45 days. It is bitter, some dogs don't mind the taste but if she does you might need to get gel caps and put the dose in it. Please add to food after incubation right bef...

Re: Levi-9 month old golden retriever (home from ER/ICU 3 days)

That is interesting but frustrating. You would think that stress of being at the vet would cause a bad gut.
Was he on IV fluids at the vet?

Can you read on the package and tell me the strength of a Creon capsule?

Re: Levi-9 month old golden retriever (home from ER/ICU 3 days)

Lisa, are you documenting what you are doing or keeping a log?

For now keep things the same but add in the slippery elm.

See if that helps at all. Maybe you can answer my question above.

Re: Levi-9 month old golden retriever (home from ER/ICU 3 days)

I am so sorry just saw your two posts! What strength Creon are your capsules? I just put the slippery elm in a little warm water and let it start to gel a tad. Then feed. Or you can mix like you said. Are you giving the correct amount of Tylan for weight? Tylan (Tylosin Tartrate) Dosage Guide 13kg/3...

Re: Levi-9 month old golden retriever (home from ER/ICU 3 days)

From this site: "Give Slippery Elm (SE) powder with breakfast and dinner meals. It can also be given separately with something like yogurt. Just be sure to always give with moisten food, and add a spoon or two of water as SE is a mucilage and will thicken. Incubating not necessary. SE can be gi...

Re: Levi-9 month old golden retriever (home from ER/ICU 3 days)

Hi Lisa, I am sorry Levi has so much going on. I suspect the Epi is responsible for the SID and low B12. I suspect the IBD is the food allergy. Can you tell me what each Creon capsule potency is? How much does Levi weigh (wondering if the dose is correct)for his twice daily Tylan dose? We like to se...
