Caine has been doing great! He has been busy playing in the winter snow and enjoying bananas. Occasionally (maybe once every month) he will vomit 4-5 hours after eating. When he vomits, it's undigested food. It sometimes happens a couple days in a row. This concerns us because the food is undigested and then he potentially misses a meal.
After taking another family dog to a holistic veterinarian, I have been researching how dogs react to the food they eat.
Like humans, dogs react to what they eat. Dogs, as I've been learning, should be on a raw diet. This best suits their evolutionary needs as carnivores. Dr. Karen Becker of Natural Pet Animal Hospital in Bourbonnais, Illinois is a fantastic resource for feeding raw diets. She has various YouTube videos explaining the importance of a healthy diet. You can start by making sure your dog's food is grain free!
Going back to Caine, Dr. Becker suggested in one of her videos a digestive enzyme that is available through Mercola products. She works for Mercola. The digestive enzyme will help Caine's pancreas secrete the necessary fluid to aid in digestion. I can't wait to try it!
