I have
osted several threads in the last few days because of diarrhea issues I've been having with my two Shih Tzus, Charlie and Duke. I finally took a stool sample to the Vet and they tested it and found a bacteria called Clostridium Perfringens. They said typically it comes from contaminated soil. Wow, if it's not one thing it's another! I'm trying to decide if I should send a sample of the soil in our backyard somewhere to have it tested. I've been feeding them raw food which may or may not be where they got it. I caught Duke with his face in the grass (the day before he had diarrhea), I picked him up and he had mud on his face and in his mouth. I don't know what to think. Charlie came down with diarrhea a couple days later, but I've never seen him eat anything but flowers from a vine we have in the backyard. I've been cooking their food just in case the last couple of days. I think until I have a sample tested from our yard, I'm going to keep cooking their food and working in the TO Wild & Natural and maybe the NV Raw Instinct.
