I know what is a good food and what is a bad food. Uncle Fred, however will not cooperate. I have tried everything from Wellness to Canidae to Evo. I have changed foods slowly and carefully. Nothing helped. He had recurrent giardia too, so that muddied the waters.
Finally I did some research into coonhound history. Historically, most coonhounds have been fed on cornbread and scrap meat. I would assume that breeding selected those that thrived on this diet. So I took the free coupon I had and bought Iams Chunks. No more diarrhea, no blood no mucus. He has put on weight and is glossy and full of energy.
So now what do I do? Does anyone know of a better corn based kibble? I know he doesn't digest rice because he poops it out whole, I used to think he had tapeworm because of the grains. I don't think I am prepared to cook cornbread for my dog.
Minnie the beagle is doing great on Canidae.
