Re: Diarrhea....for nearly a month! PLEASE HELP!

Update on Sasha....
Okay...well, in my last post, last week, I said that the vet had to reschedule our appt. So...in the meantime, we did the following for Sasha: Made her fast for 24 hours (poor baby). Took her off ALL the stuff the new vet put her on (Imodium, Acidophillus, W/D food) and low and behold, she is better. No more soft stool, no more ferociously pawing at the door just to go out and eat grass, no more drinking a TON of water. Her stools are nice and firm now and the quantity has decreased dramatically.
So...what int the world was going on???? FOR THAT LONG???? I am wondering if she somehow developed an intolerance to her old food and once we changed to the new food (about 3 weeks into this issue....not the W/D...but the Canidae), it just took a few days for the her system to get used to the new food? I know that their systems can certainly take a hile to adjust to different food, but is it possible to develop an intolerance to food that she has been on most of her life?
Anyway..thanks everyone for all the help, advice, and links for us to check out.
