| My vet said Pepto Bismol was okay, but call YOUR vet for the proper dosage for your babies weight. (((hugs))) I know it is hard when our babies are sick! |

| call your vet...but we give our dogs chicken and rice to eat for a couple of days...and yogurt between meals. this seems to help them pretty well. but definitely ask your vet first. i hope your baby feels better soon!!!

| If it's just yellow bile and they are acting fine they probably aren't sick. Just give a good dry cookie (we like buddy biscuits) or some rice. Mine puke weekly. While gross, it's nothing to worry about. If there is diarrhea or your dog is lethargic I would call the vet for their advice.

My Little Man! Donating Member | Definitely boiled chicken breast and rice it helps their little stomach. Call the vet anyways just to make sure it is nothing serious

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | if she vomited up bile in the am before eating then that just means her stomach was empty and she should eat. if she vomits up bile during any other time think about what she was doing right before it. if she was hyper and running around like a nut then she might have over done it. if it wasn't the first thing, and not the second thing, then she probably has an upset tummy. try giving plain yogurt to help settle the digestive tract. the vet i work for says no pepto bismol or kaopectate.

| How much pedialyte would you give a 6 lb and 12 lb dog? Do you put it in their water dish and let them drink as much as they want? Also I saw it today and thought about picking up some to have in the house. we just had a bad diarrhea explosion the past few days. seems back to normal now but just curious also if you give the unflavored or flavored pedialyte and also how much should they have? |

| I just bought the plain and put it in her water dish, do not add water to it, left it out until I knew that she had drank some of it.

| Thanks for responding :-) We don't have diarrhea and vomiting anymore but I will definitely pick some up next time I am at the store. It makes sense that from losing so much fluids from vomitting/diah to replace fluids and hydrate. |
