Campylobacter etc. can cause damage which results in a reduced rate of nutrient absorption resulting in diarrhoea so other kaolin, pectin and/or probiotics therapies can have very positive effects. If you are using a natural probiotic yoghurt consider also sticking to one protein and making it not chicken or beef as they both are heavily dosed with antibiotics resulting in antibiotic resistant bio-loads - lamb mince is ideal. Feeding small meals every few hours and adding a tablespoonful of live yoghurt or kefir once or twice a day helps to promote gut flora. (Goldies absolutely love it....there again golden retrievers will usually eat anything they can get their teeth round ) It is also worth talking to your vet about the long-term use of a daily single low dose background antibiotic like ampicillin or amoxicillin which can help to overcome the gut damage caused by improving nutrient absorption.

But, as you say, what works for one etc etc, yadda yadda Quote:
As for Globulis, never heard of it and the Google says no.... lol But, its not sommat that can be fixed perse, Beardies are known to be a timid bunch from the get go, but with Brandy its made far worse from being treated badly during his younger years as a "puppy farm" stud dog til i got him at the age of about 5. He has come a long way mind, but thats not even close to 50%. Its now a catch 22, he will scare himself farting, jump up and run, he forgets that he cant jump up without pain (back end collapses most times) so that raises his stress levels. That was just a wee example of what im still up against. When i 1st got him, you couldnt put your feet near him, just scrunching up a crisp packet to put in the bin would scare him. Hes gotten better with age but thats only cause hes going deaf. Quote:
I have tried the probiotic stuff in the past, whilst he likes it, that goes through him too, as his issue is part food related, namely most anything thats not his kibble, trying new stuff is normally no no, thankfully i have found a solution that works very well with the dehydrated mash and boiled chuck

Just to update on the starting issues, i have recently installed a new starter motor, the difference in cranking speed is black and white.
The terminals were slightly corroded, i binned the old one anyway, the new one was about £75 all in off of the Bay, not a bad price for new I cannot say how good it is for cold-weather starting as the lowest was 7ºC so far, not been out with the boy for a wee while due to 2 of them limping Meant to be some colder (sub 0) in the coming days so hopefully will see, i have removed the solar charger for now too, just to see whats what...

Sounds like it could be a sticky EGR valve. Alternatively a hose not quite connected somewhere.
