I give each of the dogs, 4 pumps of the Grizzley Salmon oil, which is 3220 mgs, per pump, which equals 12,880mgs per day.
Dogs' weights, again, please?

Oh boy, just looked at the ingredients to Embark and it has many things that are likely not helping if indeed she has yeast issues.
Cranberries, apples, carrots, potatoes, bananas.... Well, I am not going to be feeding it for a while
OK, I just want to say that this is unlikely to have been a big contributing factor, and that it was not a trigger factor at all. Yeast overgrowth happens because of a breach somewhere (allergies, illness, infection, antibiotics, and so on). I take grains and simple sugars (such as may be in the diet) out, too, but I really would not get too frazzled over having been giving this food. Bad diet (grain-heavy diets, for example, using grain rather than meat and weakening -- IMO -- the immune system) are part of the overall open-the-door-to-yeast-overgrowth equation, but a good diet that included the foods you list did not trigger a yeast overgrowth.
JMO.
I too would give RMBs/meat and greens now too, but please don't think that you have actually caused this with that food.

Well, that is a relief Connie!
Also, should I try some of the Yeast and Fungal Detox by Azmira?

What about the yogurt Connie - is that ok for all of our dogs who tend toward yeast sometimes because of allergies? I realize the probiotics are what we want, so can we overlook the sugar because of the benefit of the probiotics?

Kaia weighs 80 lbs and Kodi is about 75 lbs at 9 months, earlier I didn't count the months and I said he was 7 months old, but silly me, the months have flown by!

So you are giving 13 grams each to a 75- and 80-pound dog?
Huh. Last time I looked, I thought that Grizzly's instructions worked out to a little less than that. OK, quite a bit less.
This is TOTALLY a side issue, but would you please give me the bottle directions for your weight dog? (Does it say 4 pumps for 80 pounds, and they told you that each pump is about 3.2 grams?)

I have been following this thread, too, for future reference and just want to pop in here and say "I love you, Connie".
Also, I rarely feed mine vegetables, but I do feed plain yogurt 2-4 times per week.
If you can comment, should I feed her more yogurt with her on antibiotics for three weeks?
Thanks
