Hi, go with your heart & change diet, sounds like food sensitivities with the itchy skin & licking paws… With greasy poos it’s normally a sign of too much fat in diet, what is the fat % in the vet diet he’s eating?? don’t feed any tin or cooked foods with boiled rice, my boy has IBD & cant eat boiled rice, I’d start either cooking a bland diet with potato & a protein with omega 3 6 & 9 oil or a kibble like “California Natural” Lamb & Rice, it has just 3 ingredients, rice in a kibble is grinded, where in wet tin or cooked meal boiled rice is pieces of rice that can irritate the bowel, your boy will probably continue to have a sensitive bowel now, every dog owner I’ve spoken with where their dog has had Parvo & survived now has a very sensitive stomach/bowel…
Change diet until you find foods he isn’t sensitive too & I’d do another round of Metronidazole (Flagyl) … was he on Metronidazole for 28days?? I’d stop the Digestive Enzymes, stop everything & start again with a healthy diet & just the Flagyl… Less is best sometimes.. http://www.californianaturalpet.com/products
