My vet says boiled children and cooked while rice when the tummy is upset and so far that always works. My two will wolf it down and I give that to them for two days, if all goes well. Anyway, when mine get a tummy upset it is usually because I give them too many choices. A high quality dogfood and a small treat is plenty, but they look me in the eye with that pitiful look and sure enough, too many treats or too much variety, like peeled apple and lamb/rice treats and Cheerios. You get the idea. The other time they have had tummy problems have been when they get into something they should not, like a lizard or houseplant. I learned the hard way to get rid of Sago palms, poison to yorkies! So, check around the house for anything these curious little furbabies can eat and make sure toys are not in need of tossing. I notice, too, my little one seems to be more sensitive to a tummy problem, Chloe seems less likely to get an upset so perhaps size enters into the issue as well. I'm sorry you baby has been sick.
Good suggestion! Not owning a Yorkie as yet...you'll have to give me the "boiled children" recipe for the future....whodathunk!
