Unopened pancreatic enzyme available due to death of our Dharma

We recently lost our 12½ year old GSD Dharma. She was an EPI survivor who healed and flourished after being rescued at age 3½ years from a life in a pen 24/7 with regular beatings and no treatment for her genetic illness. Dharma was a rare gift who returned many times the love and affection she required to become her best self. Attached is a fav picture of her. As she died, my 500 gram pancreatic enzyme refill order from EnzymeDiane arrived. It remains unopened and has been refrigerated to ensure freshness. I am hoping to recover my $288CAD cost if I can in finding this essential product a new home where it will help another EPI dog. We are in Victoria, BC, Canada, and can be contacted by email. Thank you.

Terry,
I am sorry to hear you lost your good girl. It sounds like you were both lucky to have found each other. She is gorgeous.
We never have them long enough.

Oh, Terry, Dharma was a beautiful girl. Her story, and yours, is very touching. I am so sorry you lost her. We are going on a month, since we lost Tucker, and I am wondering when it will happen, that I will stop being sad & stop talking to my boy. Take Care. 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.

Hi Terry,

I am so sorry that you had to say goodbye to Dharma... it sounds like you gave her a beautiful 2nd chance at life, from a horrible beginning that she had and that her life with you was well lived by her and that she gave you much joy too. It hurts so much when we lose such a beautiful soul and companion.

If you will give me your permission, i will also post this on our Epi4Dogs Facebook page....to give you more exposure.......... you can let me know by emailing me privately at
olesia.kennedy@gmail.com
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.........

Hi, All. Hope your canine lives are thriving. I've been doing some traveling since the loss of beloved Dharma and still have her final unopened pack of EnzymeDiane pancreatic enzyme available for a new home here in Victoria where I live. I will accept the best offer for it. If interested, please let me know. Cheers,

TERRY
