Oh - if the bobbing for kibble isn't working have you tried feeding on a flat plate and using a wash cloth to wash the muzzle area?
EPI can be frustrating but I promise you will get there!

Re: Poop consistency
Just chiming in here - you've been given GREAT advice from some of our best experienced members. The only other thing I would suggest is to feed smaller meals - is there any way you can do 2cups of food with 2tsp enzymes per meal? Not sure how many times you are feeding but my boy used to get 6 cups...

Also, if you could add a signature to your profile (with your test scores, current food and amount, enzymes and how prepared and any supplements or antibio...

Another member mentioned there is a test for taurine levels - don't know anything about it but definitely something to ask the vet about.

He was fine for several months but then began showing symptoms of slight weight loss at 10mos old - he ...
