Cottage cheese is usually good for digestive problems. If he has diarrhea, you may want to avoid the pumpkin though...that is usually a constipation treatment....it makes them go. Let us know the results. Marsha

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.

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. --- In [email protected], Sheila Babcock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks for the advice. Tito is already on a special Prescription ID diet, and I have removed all table food except for the green beans that I just tried. I was wondering is carrots are good or bad. Don't want anything that will cause gas. > marsha Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I don't know about kiwi, but grapes are on the "no-no" list. Grapes can be toxic for dogs. > My mom started giving "mixed" veggies that come in a can already 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.... > There are endless possibilities but I personally can never keep up with what is poisonous for dogs, so I prefer to keep any human food to a bare minimum. > Marsha > ----- Original Message ----- > From: babcocksheila > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wednesday, March 07, 2007 10:48 AM > Subject: [Chihuahuas] veggies > > > Hi All > I just started giving a few canned green beans and juice with Tito and > Raina food as suggested.
