diet change

December 24, 2003

for those concerned, the appointment with the vet went very well.

apparently, schnauzers are prone to gastro-intestinal problems. laceys stems, most likely, from her going for too long without food in her stomach. schnauzers have an eating disorder - if there is food, she will eat it. bowls and bowls and bowls of food, if available. so we ration her intake: the routine is breakfast at 7ish and supper at 6ish.

now her evening meal is split into two smaller meals and she gets to take a pepto bismal tablet with her later meal. she is also on a strict no-rawhide diet for the time being.

and she didnt throw up this morning, so that is good.
we shall see what tomorrow brings.
