Hey Dolly and all. Well, my granddog, Rocko, a bullmastiff, has been losing weight, just like my precious Rusty did. My daughter took him to the vet, and was told the same thing, he’s just getting old, no disease. They told her she could take him to a specialist, expensive. What can cause an animal to eat good and still not seem to get the nutrients like my Rusty and now Rocko?
Everyone here is the brightest and most well-informed. Any suggestions that don’t cost thousands of dollars would be appreciated.
Does Rocko..show any of these signs?
Vomiting.
Weakness.
Diarrhea.
Loss of appetite.
Signs of pain.
Dehydration.
Bloating.
What kind of imaging and labs did they do?
How old is Rocko? Just because he is eating good doesn’t mean he is eating the right kind of food. Was he tested for any kind of worms?
