Hi Darleen
My Okona the 10lb Papillon, has addison's and he's throwing up and someone
suggested slippery elm. What quantities and how often should I give it to
him or is there something better?
Also he had lost so much weight that we are now feeding him a growth
formula puppy
kibble and he's having extremely large stools - even on the regular food
his stools seemed large. I asked the vet if he needed some digestive
enzymes to help him retain more of the food and he sidestepped me and
started telling me how they would have to test the stools. Is there
something I can give him that's more natural?
Today he gets his first shot of DOCP (precorten-v) to replace the mineral
coroid Florinef that he's been taking. Other addisonians seem to need much
less prednisone when getting the shot that lasts for 25-35 days.
Thanks
