[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 309164, member: 1024"] Well, hello Kathy! Gosh, it's been a long time since I've seen you on the board! I hope you find out what's wrong with your little fur friend too. Right now, I give her about a tablespoon's worth of either beef gravy or baby food (just beef) to get her medications down. I mix it with her regular dog food, which is Iams. I know people have negative about Iams, but it's really the only dog food that she can tolerate. When I've switched her, in the past, she gets extremely gassy. I do a gradual switch, too. Mixing 1/4 new to 3/4 Iams and gradually adding more. So, for now, she's okay. I realize that her kidney values were so low that she may have permanent kidney damage, but at least, for now, she seems healthy or healthier. She's eating and she gained a pound in three weeks, which is a good sign, since she went from being a 14 pound dog to under ten pounds in only a few months. So, if we get several more months of my sweetie, I'll be more prepared then I was a few weeks ago, when I got slammed with the thought of having to put her down in a few weeks. [/QUOTE]
