Oh my goodness. This video is so valuable. Thank you so much for sharing. The story that you told is textbook to what we experienced with our two and a half year old Frenchie. She was confirmed through biopsy but it took us a long time to get to that point and several near death experiences. When we finally got it confirmed we use the baytril for 10 wks. It seems to have wiped out or at least put her condition into a remissive state. She, however, is still on a steroid to help with her GI upsets because she does still have IBD. Hydrolyzed diets didn't work for her, so we have her on Nom Nom. Because she has a hard time putting on weight, we also try to give her dehydrated turkey liver food topper, and a high density calorie paste. Anyway thank you again so much for sharing this because it is so important that other French owners know this and they don't go through the same long journey of trying to figure out why their frenchie is sick.
Thank you for sharing. I have had Frenchies for nearly 20 years. I have 2 Frenchies with this, one dog cleared up on antibiotics and a change of diet (freshly cooked food), for mine hydrolyzed protein food, made the symptoms worse. I'm struggling with my other Frenchie, finding it hard to clear up, now we have been battling for over a year. The next step is to see a nutritionist to try herbal and natural remedies.
I am dealing with the same. I rescued a Frenchie from a family who neglected him and had him out in the patio day and night, he would drink dirty water from the ground. In November he will be 2 years old. After an entire year of tests, food/diet adjustments, 2 months of antibiotics, probiotics, endoscopy, colonoscopy, biopsy you name it….. my pup was diagnosed with GC and 3 months later we are still dealing with this. It is so painful as I know my puppy is not comfortable when going potty. There has not been even one day that I can say he has had a healthy firm stool. Are you able to share what foods have worked for you? I have tried many brands and options but would love to hear your experience. Thank you so much for this video!
We are currently using Farmers Dog but Just Food for Dogs also works for some. Be sure it's not a poultry as that seems to be the biggest protein causing issues. We also use Proviable every day. No treats unless a non-poultry base.
@@RescueAFrenchBulldog thank you, I do believe poultry is not good, my pup had an allergy test and showed chicken and turkey disagreed with his stomach. I’m just glad he is not bleeding anymore but I am afraid he would relapse as we have not found food that would agree with his gut.
We are just now finding this as a possibly in our new rescue Frenchie. Thank you for this video. ❤
