Update! I want to thank every one for their input on Konan. I am pleased to announce that Konan has gained 7 lbs these last 2 weeks and it mostly eating well. Only 17 lbs more to go for his ideal weight. We switched to Pancreaplus enzyme tabs and it was a game changer. We have been crushing the tabl...

Hi DocX, I wanted to really thank you for the suggestions. Konan has eaten for the first time consistently 3 days in a row since his surgery 6 weeks ago. He has more energy and is overall happier. I relish in the little victories. I took your meat and rice recipe and created my own for him and so fa...

Hi DocX, Thank you so much for your post. I will ask my vet about if he has an underlying IBD subtype, as biopsies were done. The way you explain your dogs is exactly how Konan is acting.

She thinks he may not be emptying his stomach well, causing the nausea. She doesn't want to start an antibiotic y...

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum but have been reading up for the past 4 weeks. My 4yo GSD was just diagnosed with EPI, but it is a more complicated case. 6 weeks ago he underwent emergency surgery for a mesenteric torsion and colonic torsion and miraculously survived. No bowel even had to be ...
