Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
Debbie--- Tucker's B12 was 666 after no pills for ten days, so that's why I decided not to give him very much of it. If Storm is low, then you definitely need to supplement. The runny poops after two weeks of B12 pills, I wouldn't think there was a connection. Are you treating for SID? Seems it's always there, hopefully under control, but still SID can flare up periodically, who knows why, when you're doing everything right? Can you remind us, are you using slippery elm or Tylan for SID? Thanks!---Pam
Tucker was a shepherd mix--- TLI 1.3, Folate 9.7, Cobalamin 666, Lipase 38. Diane's Enzymes 4 t/day, B12 1 capsule/day, and Tylan 1/16 teaspoon/day. Taste of the Wild High Prairie, 4 c/day. 60 to 85 pounds! Tucker succumbed to hemangiosarcoma Nov. 2023. I will always, always miss my sweet big boy.
Now there's Nina. 5 year old GSD. TLI 1.0 B12 323. We are still tweaking her routine, and getting lots of help from the forum. She is klutzy and goofy, and we love her dearly, too.

Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
PLeasE! Can a staff member remind me of the exact formula for weaning off Tylan? And at day 45, should I do it even if Tuck is still passing gas a few times a week? Thanks so much---Pam

Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
So reviewing your old posts I see you had Tucker down to 1/32 t twice daily. What happened. Did you work your dose back to 1/4 t twice a day?

Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
Hi Jill. Sorry you had to read through all of that. Tucker's SID flares up 2 times a year, I'd say. Farting, farting, poo a little wetter. I do the 45 day round of Tylan, when that happens, and it usually works. He also takes 1/4 teaspoon slippery elm, daily. I just can't remember exactly how it was explained to do the weaning. Yes, he had been on that smidgen amount for quite awhile, when the gas started several weeks ago.
And, I did have that question about occasional gas still present. Like I said, though, we are on day 44 of 1/4 teaspoon 2X day, tomorrow is day 45. The gas, before the Tylan seems to kick in, is every half hour, and it definitely clears the room. Currently, it happens just every few days. Thank you so much. ---Pam

Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
I ended up leaving Mickey on a low dose till he passed as he would get slimy poop.
When I search I don't see specific steps on weaning. I would probably keep one dose a day the same and reduce the 2nd by half or 1/4 for a few days. And work my way down.

Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
Itchy Dogs---Has anybody tried THE ONE, or Salmon Bites? Any OTC or home remedies for seasonal allergies? I give them Benadryl, but I can't help wondering if there is something better to try. Too many different plants in our yard, to try & figure out what to pull up. Thanks for the help---Pam

Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
ALL of my dogs have had allergies mainly to grass seeds
we gave Piriton one each day and washed their paws and under their belly when they had been outside
the vets might have an idea which is not OTC, One of mine had to have steroids as it got so bad

Re: Tucker's Results Are In!!!!!!!
Shedding?
Today I took Tucker to the groomer for a shedding treatment, which involves a special shampoo followed by intense brushing.
My friend has this done to her hound, and she swears by it.
The groomer apologized because after thirty minutes, Tuck was still shedding, and that is not normal. He got all the shepherd "cotton balls" & lots of fur, but when you run your hand through his hair fur still flies off. This is an experienced groomer, who has done this treatment for all kinds of dogs, and he was perplexed.
Is there any connection to enzymes? Or B12? Or, could this be due to the new info about vitamins A,D,&E?
Thanks, Friends!---Pam
