Leela says Hello out there!

Leela was fine after another doctor visit and an enema.  Poor baby.  She has been really great this year. Her eating has picked up.  I think the Blue Buffalo brand was making her sick.  She's gained weight and been far less lethargic since we changed food.  Her stool has finally normalized.  I hate to say it, but I think our food choice might have been a huge part of her digestive and eating problems.  She wasn't processing most of the stuff in the Blue Buffalo Brand.  Especially anything with blue berries in it.  Her body doesn't break them down.  It totally clogs her system.


Now we are feeding her made in the USA Nutro Max Beef and rice dinner Homestyle Ground and Nature's Recipe Venison and rice Homestyle ground.  We take a third of a can and sometimes mix it with tuna and fresh organic broccoli.  She loves it.  Cleans her plate every time.


We switched out her crunchies as well.  She had been eating blue buffalo wild something or other with a wolf on the front of the sack, but now she's eating a combo of Nature's Recipe Vegetables and Salmon.  We tried these after running out of Blue Buffalo.  When we went back to the Blue Buffalo, her diarrhea problems also returned, so we stopped immediately and haven't had any issues for months now.  It's hard to believe all of this was from the food.  Seriously, if you notice bowel problems in your dog and you are using Blue Buffalo, stop and switch to something else and see if it clears up.  


I was amazed at how quickly she seemed to even out and act like she felt better.  She hasn't been to the Vet since her last visit, posted below.
