i looked and there are a few suppliers near my house that carry that product. What is it that you like about that type of food?
It has good ingredients, it's formulated for LB puppies (correct calcium, potassium, kcal levels) and no corn or wheat (which are probably among the most common causes of allergic reactions).
But I'm concerned about your vet's trial and error approach -- maybe it's this, let's try this remedy; Gosh, that didn't work so maybe it's that, we'll try ____, etc., etc.
In the meantime, your pup suffers and your purse suffers also because every failed treatment attempt isn't free -- is it?
Incorrect, misguided treatment attempts are usually VERY costly and often lead to more similar excursions.
You may like your vet very much and s/he may be very good for usual, every day common issues.
BUT, for difficult to diagnose issues, I so much prefer the advanced diagnostic skill of specialists and the state-of-the-art diagnostic resources at a College/School of Vet Med's Teaching Hospital that we use one regularly for ALL of our vet services (since I'm retired and K-State's is only 50 minutes away, largely by Interstate highway).
With my first lab, Bess, we settled on a really nice local vet, friendly, seemed to love her. But I gradually grew uncomfortable with him.
My wife and I took he and his wife sailing one night and he joked about treating 5 & 10 cent store ill turtles. His Rx: take a picture of their markings and buy a replacement. When I repeatedly took Bess back for shattered and sometimes bleeding toenails, he said it was from digging in our backyard and repeatedly gave her another round of penicillin injections.
One evening, my wife and I had a colleague, a child psychiatrist, over for dinner.
Bess was schmoozing them, as usual. I mentioned to David her toenail problem and he looked, then picked up a paw of Bess, sniffed it, and said she had a fungal infection. That proved correct and an anti-fungus med cured it. My trust in our vet was further shaken. When a
child psychiatrist could accurately diagnose within a few seconds what our vet missed on repeated visits........ something seemed wrong.
A bit later, when I took Bess in to Dr. ___ for some condition, in his exam he discovered she had cancer of her mammary glands and wanted to operate.
But by then I'd lost enough trust in his wisdom/skill that I deferred and took Bess to Kansas State's CollVetMed Teaching Hospital.
They tested and found the cancer had also metastasized to some of her lymph system.
They did a radical mastectomy PLUS a partial lymphectomy.
Bess was 7 years old at the time.
Bess lived almost 7 more years.
If I'd let Dr. ___ do the surgery, he would have missed the metastasis and Bess would have died within a year.
After that, we did ALL of our vet work at KSU.
And now do the same with Puff.
While you can self-refer to A&M without your vet, to keep harmony, you might ask for a referral so he can send records of all the work previously done.
Best wishes for a happy outcome and a problem solved.
