    Desperately Need Food Help......

    Thank you this info is helpful. I plan on pricing out a phone consult with a nutritionist today but it might be harder then I thought to get this info due to the info I have to have & getting a vet to talk with them on the phone before they will even speak with me. but again this does help.
