Hi
A couple questions: When you tried the holistic route, were you working with an actual Holistic Vet? If not, I would look one up in your area and try working with what they recommend. I have had very good luck with our Holistic Vet when things happen that our regular vet cant solve.
Also, how long have you had him back on the Orijen?
It can take a long time to get all of the proteins that cause allergies out of the body.
Sometimes it can be several months before you see a difference.
Yes, I was working with an actual holistic vet. I was not happy with them though. I also worked closely with the owner of a holistic health food store... you may think that they only sold me things in their store, but actually, if they didn't have something, they helped me find it... if I found something, they would help research it with me and if we liked it, they would begin to carry it, or not... Anyway, I digress.
We have been back on Orijen for about 2 or 3 months.. we went on Taste of the Wild first. But just fish there as well.
True Story, We got a letter from the holistic vet saying that their office no longer met the building codes for the town they were located in, so they would no longer be seeing patients. They would do in home visits for emergencies and be refilling prescriptions only! That was it.. not a list of other holistic vets they recommend, not that they were looking for a new office.. nothing!
weird..
Anyway.. in my quest for a good holistic vet, I picked the wrong one! Story of my life!
