    I'm really glad to read that Chipper appears to be on the mend. I had to stop giving Sasha rawhide treats earlier this year. She got the same reaction, vomiting and dirreah. She's not had them in over 6 months now and is doing just fine.

    Thanks everyone.

    He's still having diarreha but it's not explosive or bloody. He turned his nose up to breakfast but I think he's just really tired of the prescription Eukanuba that MSU sent home with us. I mixed in a little Canidae and he started to eat.

    He's also been having some stinky farts. Phew! Making my eyes water.

    Poor Chipper. Tummy problems are no fun at all. I do hope he continues
    to improve day by day.

    Maybe you can slip him a Bean-o! Seriously, I am wondering if there is something like that for dogs with such problems. I'm sorry to hear that his tummy has not completely settled down. Then again, he has come a long way from the sick little boy he was not long ago. I give Bella and Ripley bully sticks occasionally. They love them and they last forever. Bella is a voracious chewer and it takes her ages to finish one.

    LOL Pam! I know! There you go...something you can invent.

    Actually, the stinkies are subsiding and now if we smell a little gas, we know it's time for a bathroom break.

    His diarreha is all gone and he's back to his chipper and food devouring self. Despite him giving us the "eyes", we gave him no treats and spent a lovely holiday with no ill after effects.

    Thanks for the info on the bully sticks. Kia and Chipper are also voracious chewers and we have been hesitant spending $11 on something that might be gone in mere minutes.

    He did get to spend a short time at the Bark Park on Christmas Day. He sorta came when we called and unfortunately was attacked by a husky mix. He's okay though and it didn't seem to faze him. He kept greeting others and played hard with a young GSD and a Toller. He just ran and ran and ran.

    He starts obedience school on January 10th.

    Hey Kimmy, next time you come down, we have Bully Sticks at the store for $3.99. Glad that the gas has subsided.


    Don't buy while shelter dogs die!!

    Sweet Molly! I'll let Andy know.

    We got a lot of PetSmart gift cards from the family, so we just may indulge in the mean time. Will be sure to read and make sure it is a true bully stick and made in the States.

    The Canidae is almost gone, so I'll be picking up a bag of Solid Gold soon. They've been on the SeaMeal since the 11th and seem to really like it.
