Answer
Hi Linda.

Sorry for the delay, I have been ill and will be on vacation for a bit now.

Rabbit deer and other herbivore feces rarely causes issues with dogs. I don't think this is your problem. I would need to know what you are feeding before I can comment. Please let me know asap, as  I need to go on vacation for a while; without more info I can't really help(and no, Purina dog "chow" and a formula someone is selling is not likely the answer, either).
