Update on the K9 Diet

It's been one month since I started Gi on the K9 Diet.

There was a hiccup initially. Gi's output was extremely difficult cos it's hard & dried-up. And she lost 1kg within 1wk which was serious cos her spine & hip bones can be seen at a glance.

So after much discussion and consultation, I have finally settled on a routine re the diet. And that is to alternate the raw diet with the K9. The former to maintain her mass, the latter to provide her with the nutrients. So now her diet plan is a cycle of 2 days raw + vege, 1 day egg + vege, 1 day K9 + vege & 1 day egg + vege. With this, her raw diet is only beef, instead of chicken.

It's been 2 weeks since I started on the new regime. And I am glad to report that she is back to her usual weight of 3.5kg.



But her arthritis is back. So I have to make a trip down to the vet for a few sessions of acupuncture + a new dose of TCM medications.
