You give this EVERY day? If so, IMHO, yeah you are over-doing it. Ummm...let's see. This stuff can get complicated...don't think anyone will argue that! LOL I'm supposed to be mistress of links so I should have something useful in my bag *grin* Have you taken a look at the page on Kaplan's site re vitamins and dosing? I think it's this one:

http://www.sonic.net/~melissk/vitamin.html

See if that helps you any. If not, be sure to come back about it. Personally, I would use up that 4 Paws and not buy any more. You need plain old calcium carbonate powder..you can even use ground up TUMS (regular) for this and it's a pinch at a time. If you are having any problems with her eating (I can't remember to be honest), then it may well be the 4 Paws stuff putting her off. I have the calcium carbonate powder; I've not used TUMS, however, a lot of people that I trust do and swear by it and their igs seem to like the taste of it :o)

Check out the link and let me know if I, or someone else, can help you further with it. Glad to be of help! And I'm sorry I didn't think of giving you a link when I "talked" to you down the list here.
