I have a 3 pound yorkie who is 7 years old. She's soo tiny and losing her teeth. I switched to what looked like a savory wet dog food she did fine with it. Mealtime had never been more exciting before this! But 2 weeks later she got really bad dirrahea. I called the vet. They said give her rice and chicken. So I did that. Plus scrambled a little egg too. Did this for about 9 days. Diarrhea went away. She was looking great. Happy. Then bought some food from petsmart in the refrigerated section. It was in a long tube like thing called Vital fresh food. . I cut it in slices and froze them I SLOWLY integrated this food into her rice-egg-chicken scramble. And SLOWLY STARTED lessening the rice and egg. Again about 10 days into this - she gets really bad diarrhea I'm back on rice-egg and chicken. Any suggestions? What am I doing wrong? What food should I feed her?
