Exactly........one of the symptoms of EPI is a dog that acts like it is 
starving all the time. They must do a TLI test on an empty stomach. I had to go 
out for a while because I have to get a couple of things for my new litter of 
puppies but I will contact you privately tonight and give you my phone number 
so that we can talk...

I have never heard of an EPI dog not eating? EPI dogs are always STARVING and 
will eat anything, including non-food items. 

Are you sure they did a cTLI test? See if you can find out the result.

Hi Everyone 
� 
I was contacted by someone who owns a puppy sired by my male,�the dam 
belonged 
to a friend of mine who this person purchased the puppy from.�� 
� 
Her 9 year old bitch tested positive for�EPI.� The dog had quit eating and 
after 
an emergency trip and three days of vet care they got her eating again, tests 
were run and she tested low in albumin.� Then, she stopped�eating again, 
and 
this time, she was taken�to the University of Illinois vet school and they 
ran 
all sorts of tests, finally did the EPI test and she tested positive.�� 
� 
I have NO experience with EPI (thankfully) but would like to give this owner 
some information that some of you might have.� She is now on a Grain Free 
Kibble 
along with Viokase.� The University did say this was�rare�to be diagnosed 
this 
late, at 9 years of age. 
� 
I appreciate any advice, private is fine, I will be forwarding this information 
to her. 
� 
Thanking you guys in advance
