    Has the vet ruled out ALL internal parasites?

    If yes, try using some GrapeFRUIT Seed Extract to kill off some of the negative things that could be in there. I suggest two treatments about nine hours apart.

    about 16 hours after that use the enzymes.

    I have had GREAT success with NOW Probiotic Defense. (It's a product marketed for human use, but it has helped me AND my dogs out a LOT.)

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    My cat Starr is currently on primal defense powder 1 scoop per day and GI Encap Pills 1 pill per day as well as feline vitamins and he's also still on 5mg of prednisolone which I hope to be able to wean him off of soon. So far he's doing very well. I just mix half of the herbal supplements in his food in the morning and the other half in his food in the evening. I noticed an improvement in just 2 days even though my holistic vet said it might take 7-10 days. I hope that Kirk will be able to feel better soon. Good luck.

    Thanks for the suggestions, everyone.

    We've done a fecal float, numerous fecal cytologies and a Giardia SNAP test. The cytologies prompted us to treat him for bacterial overgrowth (clostridium & spirochetes) for 2 weeks as I mentioned before....and since then his stool has continued to be loose...

    We had one PERFECT poop about 2-3 days into using the Prozyme...but that was the only one! So I think the issue is more than just digestive enzymes...

    I'm not really sure what to try next. I guess I should address food sensitivies since I feed him a wide variety of meats, carbs, and veggies....

    .....I'm pretty close to shaving off his bum fur and the feathering on his rear legs cause I just don't have the time for all these butt baths!


    Many thanks to Roxyluvsme13 & k9krazee for my great new siggy!!

    I'm sorry to hear that he's still having diarrhea. Maybe he needs to be put on a special diet for food allergies. He may be allergic to grains so maybe a grain free diet would help him. Starr's on Innova Evo which is grain free and it's helped him a lot. Good luck.
