Hello all

How do you find out what the best dosage is for the enzymes?

Hunnys poop is consistently formed but at times a bit softer and other times firm.

It also almost always has a really strong odor.

Thoughts?

Hi Jill

No, she’s been off of that for almost 2 months. She’s on taste of the wild high prairie salmon.

She is now officially off of the tylison too.

Ok thank you. When you get time will you post a signature at the bottom of your profile that shows current food, antibiotics, enzymes and strength, Tli result, etc? It would greatly help us so we don't have to reread posts to see what you are currently using :D
The ratio of 6x enzymes is 1 cup kibble to 1 teaspoon 6x enzyme properly incubated.
8x enzyme is 1 cup kibble to 3/4 t 8x enzyme.
Is she on daily B12 supplement?
Did the poops get better on Tylan?
When tweaking the enzymes too much enzyme can result in the same result as too little.
Thanks
