    Dr. Marty Nature’s Blend

    Explosive diarrhea

    • Length of Use: Less than 3 months
    Overall Experience:

    Hi all,

    I am feeling so worried about our dog, Morton. He’s our sweet, little, 3.5-year-old, 45lb Bassett/Dobbie mutt and we’ve never had any health issues in the past. He’s actually a bit of a tank, whom we loving joke is "our little trash goblin" due to his fondness for street finds (which we obviously then have to pry out of his mouth - yuck?). But never any health problems.

    We were so excited to start him on Dr. Marty’s Nature’s Blend because we love our little goblin and want him to live forever. We were so excited yesterday morning when we began to introduce the food to his diet and he LOVED it.

    We have only been giving him 3/4oz with each meal (roughly 50 pellets) in addition to his usual 1 cup of dry food (grain-free, etc).

    We did this yesterday morning and evening for each of his meals, and then this morning, for his 3rd Dr. Marty meal, we added a 1/2 a scoop of the ProPower Plus Digestive Supplement.

    After his breakfast, we took him for his morning walk and HORROR. Pitiful bouts of panting, trembling, and explosive liquid diarrhea. Sorry. It was too soon after his breakfast for it to be the ProPower Plus Digestive Supplement, so it must be the Nature’s Blend.

    He needed to go out 3 hours later for round 2 of more diarrhea. My poor puppy! He’s so pitiful. What should we do?

    Is it Salmonella? Listeria? Should we take him to the vet?

    We will obviously not give him any tonight or tomorrow morning, but should we stop altogether?

    I’m so disappointed - I was really excited about this food.

    Pros and Cons:

    • Few ingredients
    • My dog liked it
    • Diarrhea
    • So expensive

    Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
