Should I restrict her to freshly boiled chicken only? From a pup she's always had 'Royal Canin' (bowl by her distilled water) and I give her 'Harrington's Dog Treats' as a training aid (about six a day). I've read on here about pepto etc, but would rather get her right naturally somehow? I'm getting a Pumpkin delivered with my grocery order Tuesday. Should this be cut up and cooked, if so can I microwave in a rice steamer for a few mins
Any help appreciated Ladies as my wife's away for a couple of weeks. Also is any type of pumpkin preferable, we don't seem to go in for the canned variety this side of the pond only Organic and the more bog standard 'Halloween' type.
If there's no real improvement after say five days I think it's time for the a call to the Vet. She's only ever had her jabs as a pup and maybe it's time for a check over? She's in rude good health and has just been terrorising me here for about an hour, before crashing out next to me and chasing critters in her dreams right now! |

It might just possibly be the Harrington's treats - it finally dawned on me when Harry's poops went runny....
Have you tried the Lily's Kitchen treats? Organic, holistic etc. etc., - Harry loves them and we've had no recurrence of the problem. Some pet shops do them, as do Ocado!
Beware the canned pumpkin over here, I can only find the 'sweet' kind, so ended up cooking pumpkin instead. I did find that sweet potato worked just as well, though.
Good luck Martin, hope you get it sorted soon
