Wellness Dog food; Boston terrier allergy issues;

Hello Kelly and Romeo:  I wonder if he is just have some allergy issues and it will affect his digestion. Glad to see he is eating Wellness Formula Dog food, good job!

Here are a few supplements we can try for Romeo:

1.  give him some Activia Yogurt - Must be this brand for his Digestion.  It has some wonderful Probiotics in the Activia brand.
Give your boy 1/2 of the cup in the am and then 1/2 in the pm.
( if the cup is just 6 oz - split it up for 2 feedings per day)
Do this for a few weeks.

2.  give him some NuVET Plus - 1 wafer treat per day / great for allergys - will strengthen the immune system , and helps digestion.
not sold in stores/ only thru Holistic VETS and Some breeders:
go her to the manufacturer:  1-800-474-7044  ( tell them pet Nurse Marie Peppers sent you from all experts)- code # 81098

or go to :  http://www.nuvet.com/81098
*** a 2 month supply is 39.00 / ask them about the 15% off.....

3. Pure salmon oil - Please give you boy just 1/2 of a teaspoon for the first week and then build up to 1 full teaspoon per day.
Mix into the Wellness dog food.
Pure salmon oil can be found at many pet stores or on-line

4  Whan to give this boy some special treats?? : grain free sojo's cherry treats -  great and Easy to digest:
