Thanks Sundance, unfortunately we did a hydrolyzed diet trial and it failed. So she does not feel that his issue is with the protein source.

The biopsy report came back. There is some mild gastritis with fibrosis (scarring - probably from chronic inflammation) in the stomach. The small intestine also had mild inflammation, but even less...
Hi all!
Yesterday was scope day. Visually, everything looked very normal. She took some biopsies and those should be back early next week. The specialist is very frustrated. She said she really...
“I have never seen a case quite like this before.” That was somewhat unsettling to hear and yes, I did cry!
Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, the ultrasound was normal. They sent the blood to...
Thank you. He has had the pancreatic enzyme test. I’m pretty sure that is part of the Texas A and M GI panel. That is going to be related today as the last one was in Sept of 2018. I just dropped him...
Hi all,
I just got off the phone with my vet who told me that yes, if not chewed, it can sometimes pass through without dissolving. She also told me not to worry about it taking 48hr.
I asked...
I am so sorry to hear this. I have also thrown myself the ED pity Party. It just plain sucks. He is so lucky to have such a devoted Momma!!! I know you’ll do anything you can to keep him comfy....
He had surgery Monday and I was shocked how good he looked on Tuesday when I picked him up. He was in Galliprant, tramadol and keflex, but I think the Galliprant was upsetting his tummy. So they...
My previous dog had a few treatments. I can’t say if it helped or not because In the end we believe he had some form of spinal cancer, but I will say he seemed to enjoy the treatments. My vet clinic...
Ugh I’m so sorry to hear. If you are on Facebook there are a couple ED groups. One is public and one is private. There is a lot of good info there..many people have been through multiple surgeries...
Oooh. I hoped he’d be good as new! Good luck!!!! Hoping for the best possible news.
I had a dog that did this when I was a kid. I hate to tell you this, but our vet said it was neurological. It never progressed into any more than fly biting.
Thank you Anne. I had a chat with the vet this evening and he helped calm me down... for now ;) I will definitely try the MSM and fish oil. Vet wanted me to take him off the food I was feeder (per...
Thanks for asking, sorry I've been lax on an update.
He is doing well, his liver values have returned to normal and he's back to his old self! Of course, I'm still traumatized;)
He seems to be...
The latest development is that I heard from a friend that the lady across the street is a vet and has lots of cats. She fixes them and feeds them, but for the most part they are feral. I have a call...
If you have a bad feeling I'd look elsewhere. My breeder was very honest with me that my male's sire had produced a puppy with ED that she was aware of and it also could've come from the bitch's...
I feel your pain! My boy always had issues as a pup. He did in fact have giardia and after that his stools were always loose or diarrhea and sometimes random vomiting. We tried it ALL. Thousands of...
It's ok, my boy has a small sebaceous cyst under his tail. My vet knows I'm highly OCD, but still looked at me sideways and said "How did you even notice this?"
My dad had a boxer who suffered with interdigital cysts for years. They would go away with antibiotics and then come back. She would lick and chew them open and the cycle would start all over again....
