Hi
Im new to this site and hoping that some one can help. upto about a month ago my rotti was doing great, full of life, happy and full of mischief, then she started to become ill, ok so shes 10 , 11 in december. It all started by her just laying around totaly out of charater didnt want to eat then she stated to have problems with her bowls (loose stools) which had blood and mucus in it well you can imagine I was beside myself , took her to the vets and he said that she had COLITIS but didnt say which , she is now on long term antibiotics (metronidazole) one twice a day. She stiil has good days and bad days - how long does this last for ???? very worried about her at my wits ends trying to encourage to find the right kind of food that she will enjoy and that is good for her as well as her condition. at the moment I have just managed to get her to have boiled rice and chicken only small amounts because i think she cannot stomach any more compared to what she used to eat simply because of her condition. ive been on the web and read all there is to read on this condition and just wondered if anyone else have or is in thissme postion as me and my rotti.

Thanks
