My 6.5 lbs. Yorkie, Ernie, has been going strong on a very low dosage of prednisone (1.25mg) every other day, a probiotic and royal canin low fat canned. Although I don't like giving him such a commercial dog food and the prednisone, he's doing great so before you say no to prednisone, I would weigh your options. It also depends on the severity of your dog's results. Ernie was aggressively losing proteins through his intestines so I had to take drastic measures to get him under control. Dogs have been know to live for years on this regimen so I'm hopeful he will do just fine. And before making your own food, I highly recommend the RC low fat. It's formulated for CIL. And also is pork instead of chicken.
Here's the link to the probiotic I use: http://www.probios.com. It has no fat.
