I had the same problem with Nala. She's 70# and I started her on 3 pumps of the Grizzly oil. Massive diarrhea started and also an increase in scratching. Stopped giving the oil altogether for 2 weeks. I just started giving her the oil again two days ago but with only one pump. So far so good.
Definitely ease into the Grizzly. I had the same reaction with my dog before when I just started him on 4 pumps all of a sudden. I started over with just a half pump, then one pump, etc. over the course of a couple of weeks and now it's all good.

Wendy, I'm so glad you started this thread!
lol...me too now.Here I thought it was just Tuckers fussy digestion system.
Good to know others have had a problem.
He had some diarrhea again last night...solid at first then smushy at the end. And that was after just 1 pump of the grizzly the night before. So last night he just got some mushy rice with a handful of kibble. No oil. Hopefully that will sort that out.
I don't like the idea of him not being on a full dose of fish oil at this time of year, his itching will be out of control. So I am thinking I will go back to his usual fish oil in caplets that I know don't cause him problems (but dammit...they are slippery suckers and get all over the place!) for now and try to find a liquid fish oil that doesn't contain the Rosemary and gradually switch him over. Sounds like the Rosemary may be the culprit.
Thanks everyone for your input! All good info and has eased my mind.
