Hi,
I'm still new to EPI as my Golden was diagnosed early this month.

How do I know if she need prebiotics or/and probiotics? If she needs them, what do I use?

I have read that some dogs are on Slippery Elm. How do I know...

You are correct.... although EPI is becoming more and more common, some vets, still are not seeing many, if any, cases. And because EPI is not one of the top health conditions vets simply don't have the time to devote...
