Hi, my dog is doing great now after her bout with near death a couple of years ago. She is doing good, she is only allowed to eat diet dog food that I have to buy by the case, and I can only buy it at an animal hospital. It's a combination of chicken and rice, she likes it. She got sick because the area in which we live, there are a lot of dogs. People would throw out stuff to them to eat, and it would be out for days and Benji would go out and eat what was left, that's what made her sick, eating old food, and of course I was killing her with kindness, giving her whatever my family ate, turkey, meat, fish, and she loved chocolate chip cookies. Now, everytime she has to go out to do "her thing", someone has to go with her to make sure she doesn't eat anything bad for her. She is doing great, and will be 16 in October, and she is still very active and loving. The vet did say that this disease will never fully leave her system though. We have to take extra good care of her and so far, she is doing wonderful.
