Is there a list or somewhere I can go to see a list of veterinarians that specialize in EPI?
Well the several I have spoke to help a little I do not think I'm getting The help to the extent I should be at the moment. I cannot get My dog stool to firm up and regulated. And I'm getting very concerned and upset at the same time.
Thank you in advance

Re: Vet That's specializes in EPI
Hi Shawn, we do have a list here on the website with "recommended vets" ... HOWEVER.... quite honestly, a lot of the best "tweaking" to get thing just right comes mostly from the pet parent trying things one-at-a-time and keeping a record ... and trying the recommended things from this forum/other EPI parents, and the recommended Epi4Dogs protocol.
Here is the link (just copy and paste in your browser) to the recommended vets page: https://epi4dogs.com/recommended-vets/
In the meantime, can you share with me what you are currently doing and what you have tried??

Olesia, was owned by Izzy, a 35lb Spanish Water Dog (SWD), Diagnosed at 1.5 years old - TLI results 1.. Izzy passed away on February 13, 2020 at 15 years old. She lived with EPI for 13+1/2 years. It was because of Izzy that Epi4Dogs was started... she was the inspiration. May her legacy of helping others with EPI continue for as long as needed.........

Piper... i just checked and you have 2 different threads from the past.... bad breath and newly diagnosed. if possible.... when posting...... use the "bad breath" thread as that has a lot of information in it with what you have tried with piper so we can see the trail of attempts.
