My dog almost stopped eating all together. Her protein level was very low on blood tests. I tried Orijen Freeze-Dried raw and she ate this immediately. Her diarrhea stopped right away. She started prednisone 2.5 mg at the same time but I think the food is helping a lot. She is starting to lose the belly fluid now too.

I had 2 cats, approx age 14. They were litter mates. For 3 years, one battled Pancreatitis while the other one battled some kind of allergy and licked half his fur off. They were BOTH put on Royal Canin Hydrolyzed Protein Kibble and Royal Canin PR canned food for a year and a half. The one with Pancreatitis developed Triaditis and got so sick he had to be put to sleep. Now, his brother has IBD and has lost significant weight and has developed a heart murmer but is negative for diabetes, kidney disease, and Hyperthyroidism. In MY OPINION, BOTH of my cats have suffered greatly from astronomically expensive Prescription pet food that has done them absolutely NO GOOD and MAY have harmed them. I have had cats ALL of my 64 years and have NEVER had a cat with these issues, much less two of them. Something is waco in the pet food industry when IBD and Pancreatitis is becoming common among DOGS AND CATS. I wish someone could figure it out.

good you figured that one out. I think vets are additionally motivated to prescribe those foods by the companies. My cat had IBD, tried it all, then got her on raw freeze dried food, and since then---No Issues whatsoever!!!!

What heartworm preventives would not cause a problem with a sensitive GI

What kind of autoimmune disease could cause canine IBD?

My dog is almost 4 yrs old and has been at the ER several times already because he's vomited blood. I was wondering, is CBD oil good for them to help with the discomfort?

Can you cover IBD treatment options?

I give my cat oral Cerenia for nausea and occasional Zophran as needed if he has break through vomiting. Just trying to stay out of the ER.

Does IBD occur with GERD? My dog has been having frequent nausea episodes after eating (occurs sometimes after she eats, but not always- she sometimes vomits during an episode, but not always). Her vet has mentioned IBD or GERD as possibilities because she has symptoms that could be both

My dog has been experiencing the same. He is on antiacid for the GERD but his symptoms persist. He is bloated, nauseous, lip licking, diarrhea with a lot of mucus and fatigue. At this point I guess IBD is either co-occuring with GERD or the reflux symptoms are being caused by the intestine’s inflammation.

My cat was diagnosed with ibd after she had a pancreatitis about two years ago. They put her on royal canine gastrointestinal wet food since and other then occasional soft stools I’d add fortiflora to her food to regulate, everything is fine. However she 11.5 now and the fortiflora is starting to lose affect and I don’t wanna put her on cortisone. Can I put tumeric for cats in her food? It’s a natural anti inflammatory and I’d think it would help wouldn’t it? Tia

My Maddi (currently 10 lbs and turning 10 in Dec.) had bad diarrhea and did throw up numerous times. She was diagnosed with IBD but the Dr. also called it PLE (Protein Losing Enteropathy) on Oct. 29, 2021. She had 2 Plasma Transfussions and they took out 33 oz of liquid out of her stomach. She is on Predizone 10mg, Clopidigrel 75mg and (Visbome probiotic and Metronidazole which she just got off on) . She lost close to 2 lbs but does love the new food she is on. Her new food is Purina Pro Plan HA Hydrolyzed vegetarian formula and some snack crackers hydrolyzed. She gets absolutely nothing else. She no longer has diarrhea or vomiting. She acts like she is not sick. MY QUESTION: The Dr. said due to her problem her quality of life will be lessoned and shorter. Does this mean I have to worry that any day she could leave me? Please be straight with me about her life. I'm somewhat confused about her problems and scared for her.

How is she doing?

My cat was constipated and my vet said she had IBD so I switched her to Instinct wet food. I couldn’t find anymore because of COVID so I asked my vet if he sold that type and if not would he sell me some of his food. He said he wouldn’t suggest his food because it would upset her stomach and I should switch her back to her original Iams kibble.

Try a good quality BARF

Please can you recommend effective çomplementary therapies that help IBD in dogs? Eg accupuncture etc

That is like asking your doctor if you should go to a chiropractor. Sadly the two philosophies of medicine don't mix. You are on your own to research that.

My dog has been thru biopsi and it confirmed IBD. However the meds were not working so we changed the vet. Now the 2nd vet instead of treatment is going for more n more tests to ensure its not lukemia or something. Few other vets are saying it's wrong he needs to be treated for IBD. My dog has lost a lot of weight and not recovering at all. Prednisone and rantac are the only meds given also he is kept nil by mouth for 7 days loosing all his energy. There is friend who suggested another vet and as per him sulfasalazine, Prednisone and surcafil are enough to start treatment with some probiotics and supplements. I am looking forward to ur advice

I switched from Visbiome probiotic to “RESTORE” by Healthline. I’ve had great success in the past with that probiotic for my horse and my mother, and now it seems to be helping my cat.
