Well I had the bloodwork done yesterday on Tito and I'm waiting for the
results. The Vet
feels its either IBS or food allergy since I switched his food 6 wks ago to
the more natural Nutro Choice. We think maybe he's allergic to the lamb. I'm
keeping my fingers crossed that's all it is. I will be switching back to
something with chicken or beef. I'm also thinking of cutting out all canned
food ( I only give a small tbls with dry) and replacing with the green beans
and pumkin. Can't get him to eat the yogart so I'll be buying the pills. What
about cottage cheese on occassion? Would that help or hurt? I got some more
Tylon pills from the Vet and he ate fine last night and this morning. The Vet
thinks he's also allergic to the Prescription Diet ID and they credited me for
that. I'll update when I get the blood results later on today.

again yesterday after being fine for the last 10 days. I tried pumpkin and
yogart. So I'm off to the Vet again to have some blood work done. Two weeks ago
all the Xray show was gas in his system he's not passing. I assume it was the
injection and the tagament like pills along with the Prescription diet Id that
allowed him to eat. Pills ran out 2 days ago. I'm praying it nothing serious.
He was always fine until I change his diet to Nutro and eliminated all of the
table scraps. Though I would be helping his diet. I would hate to think I
somehow caused this to happen. He just wants to be held now. He is peeing and
pooing just fine, and always has. Anybody have and more suggestions or ideas on
what this might be. The Vet had found nothing on his last 2 exams, and that is
why she wants to do the bloodwork.

want anything that will cause gas.

Grapes can be toxic for dogs.

mixed...chiffon loves it...but gee how stupid that was since the
whole point of chiffon's greenbeans was too loose weight and those
mixed veggies contain tons of corn, which is high in calories!! Corn
is ok to give as far as health...after all that is what most dog food
is....but it really has no nutritional value and can put on a lot of
weight. Tomatoes are another no no for dogs. Maybe try some rice
cooked in with some chicken....
