But Cassie was not on commercial dog food, I was home feeding her and so she really did not have any diahreah or a bad reaction the the raw. I switched her immediately from one to the other and she seemed just fine. Not really sure what the heck happened. I hope and pray it is subsiding. It seems to be so, at the moment. I will feed her lunch soon and see if she holds that down. :-) |
I just don't believe this, this is just not the way the body works. It sounds like the dog was vomiting bile, which is a brown color and used to digest fats. Perhaps, his food yesterday was higher in fats, I don't know.
Perhaps dog go through a period of vomiting when placed on a raw diet, but to blame this on the previous diet is ridiculous, it much more likely that the dog has difficulty handing the new diet and it takes a while for him to become accustomed to it, whether it's due to the dog needing the proper enzymes in his stomach before he can eat raw without problems I don't know, but I would like to see one piece of scientific evidence that any organism vomits to purge himself of the bad diet of two weeks ago.
