Lyn Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 From experience, I've found rawhide sometimes causes the runs. It's something we never give as treats. I'd cut out the treats and keep him on his regular diet for a few days till it settles. Maybe add in a pot of actimel a day too for a few days to balance up his gut flora.

sakora Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 When ever my dog gets the runs I feed them rice and chicken, I also use pumpkin filling for veriaty, I do that for a whole 2 days, Thats what we fed the pups at the vet when they would come in with parvo, I have found that it has worked well for me IMO I dont usually let them her have raw hides either, Just femur bones for chewing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 With him still having the runs i'd skip a meal and then feed half of what you'd normally feed at the next meal. Also make sure he's getting enough water as having the squits will make him dehydrated xx hope he's better soon xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
