Chipper and family are all still in my thoughts and prayers. Feel better Chipper!!!

I don't think I have replied in this thread before but I have been following Chipper's progress (plus non ) and keeping him in my prayers. My heart sank when I read of his relapse then rose up again at the last two reports.

Love, hugs and prayers for the sweet boy.

Looks like things are turning around.

Despite having diarreha this morning, he ate his breakfast. I also gave him an anti-diarrehal pill I had from the vet.

He played with Kia as well.

He's never going to get rawhide or any "junk-food" treats again. It's obvious he has a sensitive tummy and we'll have to give nice wholesome treats from now on.

Thanks for prayers. They worked wonders once again. We'll be sure to keep an eye on his progress and give the vets a call.

Good Kim...rawhides are not good things at all...the all natural ones aren't bad, but the ones that you get at Petsmart, etc are not good! They don't digest.

I will check with Mike and maybe we can find him some good treats that will be ok for his tummy. I am wondering about the Dogswell Happy Hips that are duck breast...an alternate protein source.

Aww Chipper, its good to hear that you're feeling better! All these ups and downs are scarin' your mom to death. Keep feeling healthy!


On a side note, you may want to avoid treats/foods with "colors". Such as the beggin strips, snausages, t-bonez, k9 carryouts...in the long run, I think this is what a vet friend of mine said, a buildup of the "colors" can cause some pacreatitis and similar problems. What kibble do you feed? Do you feed raw too? Maybe it's an allergy to the colors in the treats...

I just got done reading all the new updates and I'm so happy to hear he's doing better.
Do you remember my friend Jennifer with all the huskies? One of her fosters had the runs forever, just couldn't find the right food for him either.
Must be very frustrating to have this keep happening.

I have to say that I think your making a good decision not giving him any more treats. I just hope it works!

Lots more prayers being sent your way.
