My foster came to me with diarrhea but he had his shots that same day so I suspected it had something to do with that. A day later he still had diarrhea so I put him on a chicken/rice diet and the diarrhea got worse. To make a long story short after 3 trips to the vet, 3 weeks of diarrhea, a normal fecal, antibiotics for a possible "bacterial" infection, a negative blood test to check for antibodies to giardia and 3 different foods it turns out the puppy is allergic to chicken. Who would have guessed that?!?! lol

The hoops our Dober-kids make us jump through!

Ps. I was laughing when I read your newer thread--rocks are an interesting dietary supplement!![/QUOTE

Yes, yes rocks are. I get to go through the torture tonight...down, no rocks, up...we have been practicing though on our driveway maybe it will be better. But your post gave me food for thought (um no pun intended) reagarding chicken. I hope he doesnt have an allergy to chicken as that is the main ingredient in the new food I bought until switching to RAW but the hamburger did seem to agree with him more....I will have to keep an eye on that!


Thanks!
