Re: Molly's Story!!

Hi and welcome to our EPI family. Molly is absolutely adorable. She is one lucky pup to have you - so glad you got her to the vet in time.

Re: Confused

Hi there. My story is one of the ones Olesia wrote about. My boy was first tested for EPI at 3mos old due to chronic diarrhea and the fact that he was a GSD :D - his TLI was 16 - he was diagnosed based on symptoms with SIBO (now called SID).

Re: Oat or Oatmeal is good for EPI Dogs?

I agree - if you want to try it just do it slowly and watch the poops. I recently tried adding 1 tablespoon of mash banana because Doc's potassium is low - it made his poops not so good so I stopped. Be sure to log everything also :)

Re: Confirmed EPI

Yes you will need to supplement the B12 for life as Ann stated. When Doc was dx his B12 was 406 and the vet at the time said it didn't need to be supplemented because it was within normal limits. After reading the research and member posts here on the site I decided to order the WonderLabs Pet Facto...

Re: Calcium/Phosphorus content for puppy

Here's the information that my breeder, who is also a vet, gave me regarding feeding GSD puppies - according to her the concern to avoid growing too fast and risking hip/elbow issues etc is the calcium, calories and protein - I fed Royal Canine GSD Puppy and I believe although it does have some grai...
