That is so funny I picked up Papaya yesterday.  Dixie has the cast iron tummy which makes Sugar Bears look that much worse.  Even if I dont see him go potty I clean his back side with a baby wipe so I know when his tummy has been upset.  It is runny several time a week and very soft the rest of the time.

Bummer about not eating Pumpkin as it's one of the best things in the world for upset tummies.

I'm so lucky with Summer, she eats everything (luckily not dog poop!) and never gets an upset tummy.  Actually her tummy is pretty much cast iron.

Papaya extracts are good for horses with ulcers...I wonder if it's good for doggies too???

 ;D ;D ;D Ok guys something is starting to work.  I don't know if it is the canned green tripe or the slippery elm.  Sugar Bear has a formed poop for the first time in weeks.  Still on the soft side but formed not a cow patty.  I can not belive how happy I am to see poop.  Let's hope this is not just a fluke and that he is on the way to having a balanced tummy.

Tripe can actually upset a stomach if they aren't used to it, try dropping the tripe for a day and giving another slippery elm, I bet that will do it!

Glad you're making progress! :)

I don't know if I would use tripe everyday - once every couple of weeks.

What am I going to do now?  When I gave them their food this morning with out a spoon full of the can tripe they would not eat it.  I was thinking I would just add it to there dry food one time a week.  I used one 8oz. can for three meals for two dogs.  The can says it can be used as a solo diet, but I dont think so.  I like getting kisses to much for that. ;D

Glad something's working.  Only animal people (and people with babies) can understand conversations about poop:)

I thought salmon was something to avoid...or is that only raw?

I think is it just raw salmon that can be bad for them.

Cooked salmon is fine...in fact, very good for them.  Cowboy and Chester get it at least once a week.  I think it's Harmony Farms that is packaging it for dogs....I get it frozen from the raw food store
