Yes, this has been going on since she was a pup. I don't think she's gone a full month without going through this for a few days. In my ignorance I had almost considered this was some sort of female cycle thing. I've gone through two vets. Both have checked the stool for parasites and...

My 1 1/2 yr old Shih Poo has recurring diarrhea. We put her on EVO Red Meat and she was doing great but about once a month she would have diarrhea for about three days. The vet had us change to a bland diet and she'll do fine on that but she seems sooo hungry when she's on that. Like it...

Gracie's a little shih tzu poodle mix a little over a year and a half old. I walk her typically 2 - 3 times a day and we play and so on but my wife takes care of the dog too. I went on a week long trip leaving my dog home with my wife. The day after I left, Gracie began having loose...

Yes, we did that test. She went in for two stools at two vets before I had someone explain that the stool test isn't enough. They still gave her an anti biotic and she went on bland food for a month even though it came out negative.

Thanks. Based upon your input and my searches this morning I think I'm going to see if I can track down one of the following at my local store: Orijen Innova Evo red meat Kirkland Taste of the Wild Acana Hopefully I can buy a small enough bag for our trial. I have a half of a...

SD should be good food, I'm paying through the nose for it. I got my dog from a shelter at 4 mos old. The shelter referred me to a vet that gave her the prescription wet stuff. I will do some more searching. I see a lot of people here rally behind their foods but its hard to see any...

My 11 month old Shi-Poo has food issues. She was on dry Nutro Natural Choice and had the softest stool. She couldn't stop going outside and the mess was horrible. We switched to dry Science Diet and the opposite happened. It bound her like a cord of wood. Her stool became hard and after a...

Raw?? So I can go to a butcher shop and just get raw bones for her? I don't have to worry about things like salmonella or anything like that? What are good and bad bones to get?

My 6 month old Shih Tzu is 5.5 lbs and she LOVES to chew. She cannot get enough to chew. The vet said no rawhide for digestion reasons. I've tried the Nylabone and Nylabone edibles. The Nylabones she just gives up on. I don't know if they lack or run out of flavor but she ignores them...

My 14 week old Shih-Poo was sick when we brought her home. She had diarhea and was treated with Albon. She was losing weight and was only two pounds to begin with. The vet suggested boiled chicken and rice and we obliged. She ate the soft bland food ravenously. The instructions were to do...
