| I am glad to hear it sounds like she is doing a little better. Hopefully she will continue to improve.

| Poor baby, I hope she is better soon. Does the bloody diarrhea have a strong foul smell to it? If so, could be a lite case of parvo. Parvo eats away at the lining of the intestines. Don't let anybody fool you, having vaccination for Parvo does not always prevent it. Juice died from it, he was up-to date with all vaccinations. Hope your baby is better soon!

| Also wanted to mention for me that they did test Buddy for Parvo when he was in last week and it was negative. They tested him for worms when they tested for Giardia and that was negative as well - I am interested in why rice is a no-no for dogs? How come? I thought that it was supposed to be good when their stomachs were upset? |

| Dianne can you post where you saw that chicken and rice is not good for dogs because my vet told me to give it to my dog when he had diahrea . Also many breeders on here tell you to give it.

No Longer a Member | If you feed your pets lots of white rice for example, you will end up giving them diabetes. In fact, if you're asking a veterinarian who has been practicing for twenty or thirty years, they will tell you that they have recently seen a skyrocketing increase in the number of cases of diabetes in dogs. That's due to changes in the nutritional makeup of cheaper dog food products today that are using a lot of white rice as a filler (because white rice is cheap and makes the dog foods more profitable). But just as in human beings, white rice causes diabetes |

exactly. white rice is a simple carb which is just converted into glucose and is quickly absorbed into the blood stream. i never quite understood the advocacy of rice on here because of that fact.
