The vet said to get baby food and try that and call him back in the morning if she is not any better. I did try mashed potatoes a little bit ago a she did not want them. Haven't tried the pumpkin yet. She is just so little and I hate to see her not feeling well. She is now mad at me cause I keep putting stuff in her mouth, when I walk towards her she will go the other way.  |
Oh, gosh - poor baby, her tummy does not sound good. At this point, you can also try soda crackers, pieces of cereal, white rice.
I guess without blood work, I'm a *little concerned* with recommending too much protein, but - the toddler food that worked for Marcel when his tummy was bad were those little Mini Hot Dogs (for toddlers) in the glass jars (by the baby food) - I'd mush them up and he LOVED them, even if he wasn't feeling well. So, that may be something to try too. Babyfood is worth a try - though I know my guys never were too fond of it, but every dog is different.
