Dachshund's question about Canine Vacuolar Hepatopathy

Question

My 14 yr old dachshund has cushings. I had moved him over to a natural raw diet only for about 3 wks which he liked. Symptoms showed and he was tested for cushings. I hate the idea of putting him back on dry food. What recipie for raw diet would you reccommend?

Accepted Answer

I actually don't recommend a raw diet for any dog, although some veterinarians may differ in opinion with me.  If you want to find an appropriate diet for him, it would be best to talk with your veterinarian, as they know more about his overall health and condition.  There is not a specific diet that is typically recommended for Cushing's disease, but he may have other health concerns that would affect his ideal diet.
