| pumpkin for diarrhea What kind of pumpkin do you use for diarrhea (canned, fresh or what), and how much do you give of it...Apple has never really had diarrhea, other than when she got into some cat food...She really seems to have a bad case of it today...She's been eating NV raw for about a month now, w/no problems, so I don't really think it's that (and I'm very careful handling it, etc.)...If I give Apple some pumpkin, do you give it alone or w/food...thanks so much.... |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I've given Roxy canned plain pumpkin (without pie spices only) before. Mostly for constipation, but hear it's quite effective for diarrhea. She was a pup then. I gave her a rounded teaspoon. She ate it all & it worked very well. I don't remember needing to give it to her more than once a day. Hope it works for you! I gave it to her alone & she ate it right up.

| You want the canned from the grocery store that DOES NOT have any spices in it. It is a great source of fiber so it won't hurt them so the amount is not that important ... but it will discolor their beard...

| Maybe pumpkin is not what I need to give her for diarreah, if it's fiber? |

| Yes you do...trust me with 6 dogs it works.. I have never had a constipated dog but I certainly have had more than my fair share of diarreah...many of the rescue's that came in we didn't know what they were eating before we took them in...
