| Yeah, I know that any one commercial food can't insure a stable immune system, I just meant that the Merrick I'm feeding is a well balanced food and highly rated by WDJ. I'm already supplementing with Fish oils and probiotics and now echinacia. I'll look into Vitamin C, but I know that it can casue problems if given in high doses espcially to a 7 1/2 month old.
I've contacted my doctor and talked to him about the thyroid, he thinks it may be a good idea, since she also is showing some stranger anxiety as well. I DON'T want that anxeity turning to aggression so if the thyroid comes back low or borderline low it will help in her rehab and resocialization as well as explaining the lowered immune system. I'll let her breeder know she has if she has low thyroid too as the rest of the litter should be tested and possibly the parents retested and taken out of her program. Until now I really though it just the lack of socialization that made her shy. Poor baby, those buttwipes that bought her (originally) really screwed her up!!!
Does anybody else have any supplement suggestions?
