  1. Hi All I have just joined the site mainly out of frustration as I am trying to deal with my dogs IBD which has been recently diagnosed and I am at my wits end as I feel like it's a lost cause, reason being, my vet has told me plain and simple, it's going to always be trial and error in what to feed my dog with IBD.....WTH I didn't sign up for this trial and error for the next 15 years, my dog has just turned 2 and not to mention that trial and error with emphasis on error is not good for his system, because while we have these errors he passes blood and goes back to vomiting blood and diarrhea, THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY TO FIND A FOOD THAT WILL FIT MY DOG, this is becoming costly for me on a pension, with all the vet bills and medications and expensive prescription food purchases that I end up throwing out because it upsets him, OMG...I am reaching out here people, someone.....anyone......I can't find anything useful at all online on what I can feed my dog with IBD...home cooking is my preferred method and all the websites I have come across are directing me to buy the commercial wet and dry food, well we have already tried 2 EXPENSIVE prescription diets already and they BOTH have FAILED to help his system, he is losing weight and looking really sick and I feel sick myself as I feel he may be suffering in silence because he is a good boy and won't ever complain, I cry most nights out of frustration on not being able to help my fur baby and even though we touch base with my vet on a regular basis, she still doesn't have a lot of info for me except to mention just keep trying and STEROIDS and MEDICATIONS...steroids...no thank you, I know what they do to a dog, they shut down the immune system leaving them open to infections etc and good god my dog is already sick enough, SO I would really appreciate ANY info on IBD in dogs for those who have dogs with the condition, I would like to know your success's on the food front with home cooked meals and veggie/fruit's use and what protein you found the best and supplements to help them gain weight and I know that what food helps your dog with IBD may not suit my dog but hey it's all trial and error...RIGHT.
