for now... see if you can add Dr. Goodpet plant enzymes with the little bit of real enzymes that you are giving her... see if that helps

You and i already talked privately about the CREON, so we have that covered.

Regarding real raw green tripe..... you can get some from California https://www.greentripe.com/ .... UNLESS you know of ANYONE near you who raises cattle, or butchers Moose or Elk or lamb... as you can use the raw tripe from these animals too.

Technically it is illegal to purchase the actual raw tripe from a butchered animal that goes to the processing plant... BUT....... if you know a 'farmer" who does butcher elk, moose or beef for themselves and/or friends, ask them to save you the raw green tripe for your dog.

Just be forewarned it STINKS... and i mean REALLY stinks!

here is a good website that explains a LOT about Raw Green Tripe and the analysis; https://4rawpets.com/tripe/

Olesia, was owned by Izzy, a 35lb Spanish Water Dog (SWD), Diagnosed at 1.5 years old - TLI results 1.. Izzy passed away on February 13, 2020 at 15 years old. She lived with EPI for 13+1/2 years. It was because of Izzy that Epi4Dogs was started... she was the inspiration. May her legacy of helping others with EPI continue for as long as needed.........

Again thank you so much! Just one last question, will I need to incubate with the plant enzymes?
I am ordering them today!

yes, i would still incubate the green tripe with the plant enzymes......although green tripe has a lot of natural enzymes.... it is not solely digestive enzymes.. it just has a lot of natural digestive enzymes in it.
