Its uncanny ..I was just looking for something about collies and
diarrehoea..I'm on my second collie 12, years old now and his tummy has been
giving us major problems all his life .... he can only eat chicken and rice
.... 2 fillets a day .... anything else and hes ill again .... The vet gave
him Imodium last time together with £300 of other treatment and suggested I
put him on a special diet that consisted of meat derivatives that I know he
cannot eat ..still she insisted ..It didnt work ..Now I sometimes give him
Imodium from Boots or some stuff from the pet shop and it clears up after a
day or two ..he cant even have a Bonio poor dog ....
