She liked to play with the food and eat 3-4 balls at a time, but few times a day.
She started vomiting while she was on t/d food. Prior to that we took her to petshop for her regular haircut. I am afraid she might be stressed there.
We start giving her gastro can food only after vomiting took place.
Now she is taking Sulcrate suspension for 5-6 days and her vomiting has stopped for a while, but today it happened again along with diarrhea. I am not sure why - because of medicine or because of yogurt I gave her. I gave her yogurt before and she never had diarrhea.
I think that Sulcrate is working - but how long we can take it and what if vomiting starts again when we stop giving her medicine? |
Some dogs have diarrhea and vomiting after every food change, but it only lasts about 4 days and they get use to the new food, if you keep changing the food, you can increase the length of time they have diarrhea and vomiting. I'm not saying that this is the problem, I just want you to be aware of the fact some dogs don't do well with lots of food changes. Give only a tiny bit of the food the first day, and if no diarrhea you can increase the food.
