stomach problem with meat? Hi! i was wondering if any one have problem with their yorkie puppy/dog. I noticed strange thing with my puppy (6 months old) that no matter what kind meat i gave him. pork, fish, turkey, chicken, steak, bacon (all flavor) bone, treat, food, etc. he will have dirrehrea & vomiting right away:(, but with all vegs food, steak, bone, never have dirrehrea, or vomiting. :confused: So that makes me wonder if its possible my pup's allegry or just super sentivite to any type meat? |
I would not give any bacon or pork of any type. You said he gets sick on steak, then you said he doesn't. What you could maybe do is mix just a little ground lamb or ground bison with some gound veggies such as slightly steamed broccoli, and some fresh grated carrots. Make sure there is more veggies than meat. If he does fine with that mix, then just keep him on it for a couple of months till he's a little older and can handle a bit more meat, but take it very gradually, but always mix in some fresh veggies, ground fine. If this doesn't work, I'd try baby food meats and mix it with some baby food carrots or baby food sweet potatoes, squash, or peas. |

What about trying Bison? natutal balance has Sweet potato and bison... ! protien and 1 carb...grainfree.... This is the only "kibble" Izzy can eat.. all the other stuff gives her Losse stools and vomitting... She also eat Raw in the morning and does fine with that... That is also Bison too :) |

Great suggestion! I think there are 'vegetarian' kibbles but i think they are more of a last resort of meat is completely intolerable... not sure though. |
Sorry If i wasn't clear, i mean ANY type of meat it all made his stomach react in same way. dirrehrea or vomiting. if i give him NO MEAT at all, just organic vegan dry food, he have no problem. It worries me if hes really allegry to meat that bad, yesterday he had chicken (my boyfriend's mom gave him....) he ended up vomiting until he had nothing, all night too. i had to stay up to hold him, help him calm down cuz he was crying. i gave him little water through eardropper. now hes much better this afternoon. P.S. I never ever give him any table scraps, because i don't want him raised spoiled & picky with food. |

My wife gave Buddy some bacon the other day and it made him throw up. He LOVES beef steak and it doesn't seem to have any ill effects on him. My old dog loved venison (deer) which is very lean. I don't have any right now but hopefully will this fall. Buddy likes chicken too, and lamb. The only thing that disagrees with him is pork. |

Maybe you should have a vet check him out. If there's no illness, then try sprinkle his food with dog probiotics. My baby had sensitive stomach with diarrhea/vomiting whenever he eats snail, worms, etc. he found in the yard. Sometimes it got so bad that I thought he is going to die on me. However, after his vet pronounced his perfectly healthy and with sensitive stomach, I started him on probiotics on the suggestion of a friend who give her toddler probiotics for stomach issues. There are ones specially formulated for dogs. Comes in a capsule and you just open up and sprinkle on his food. No more episodes since then, even when he picnic in the yard or decide to become a wood chipper by eating the furniture. |
Sorry that your baby has problem. I met this couple who had same problem with their baby in vet's office last week. He had problem digesting protein, so he had to be in special diet. I do agree on probiotics, it is good for over all dog's digestive system. I use holistic ACIDOPHILUS. I think it's best to take him to the vet to be sure. |
I'm going to try the Acidophilus for my girl..she really has a lot of stomach gas and belching going on. How much do you give them? Peaches weighs 7 lbs. if the amount goes by weight? |

This is possible. my mom, who had mixed cocker spaniel which had sentivite stomach has same problem same my dog. so she told me that many indegrents in dry food are actually not safe for dogs like: soybean, meat fat, corn, starch, etc.... So my mom helped me get special food without these following items above (forgot name) I mixed it with other dry food and with rice so it won't be sudden change for his stomach. already I noticed very little improvement in his poop. Also he haven't had any meat treats or meat bones since last time i reply & post here. That also helped his stomach I noticed.... On Sept 3rd he have appt with vet for bloodwork, exam, check up, shots. Bloodwork will be full profilo for anything that contains blood: kidney, liver, bladder, etc....So if there is nothing wrong with these then....i will have do allegry or sentivite stomach testing..... I hope that theres just sentivite stomach, nothing worse!.... (fingers crosses)........ |

I only had my puppy for about month. he's about 6lbs now (his dad dog is 15 lb, mom dog is 9 lb) I noticed if i just give amount like....1 cup for a day, spilt that to 1/3 cup 3 time a day. If i give bowl let him eat it all up, he usually will has gas, belching or once in a while throw up, so I give him spoonful food seperatly wait for him finish that, wait for few minutes then give other spoonful of food, again and again until that 1/3 cup meal bowl are empty. Its very helpful for my puppy. (he's 3 months old this wednesday) food amount really depend on dry food bag you give. if bag said for 5 lbs, give 1 cup amount, that means 1 cup per day, spilt that into 2 or 3, or whatever how much meal you feed him a day. Maybe it will helps yours this way too? Hopefully i am helpful for you |
ok he shouldn't be having any treats or bones at all besides the food; they are not necessary; if anything they cause stomach upset. the meat he's getting could cause this depending how it's cooked. if it's fried or seasoned then it's no good. |
lessen sick now Good news! no meat flavored treats, only organic or treats with most less integrents in helps his tummy alot. Also I changed dry food to other dry food that cointains much lesser integrents of chemical, artificial flavors, etc...And it also helped his tummy alot. Now no more throwing up, no more dirrehrea...Apparently it was any type meat, any type fake flavors cause him sick...He's not happy to not have any meat flavor but he will need to learn that its not good for him & that it makes him very sick. My vet gave him allegry tests & done sentivite testing...Apparently Sam (my baby) was very sentivite to any meat type, even meat fat, artificals flavorings, soybean, corn, etc. So I had to change his diet completly. with bones, treats, dry food, etc. Now only type bones I am giving Sam, because hes still teethering, soon will lose his baby teeth, the rawhide sweet potato only, and treats that contains vegs only. Type of treats are Bears, something it doesn't bother his stomach either because no chemicals & artifical flavors... Dry food (forgot name) (I am at college while typin this) It contains only veg organics, but still have lot proteins that Sam needs for growing. I am so glad that I finally found out what is heck going on with Sam's stomach. Now I have to deal with people I am living with because they think its silly not to give any meat flavor, anything contains meat...i explained over and over but they seems... not to argee with what vet & me saying. So I have to keep sam near with me all time & keep eye on him all time if he's not in room with me...Also I have to not let sam eat other dog's bones, dry food, etc.....kinda hard work doing this part haha Thank you everyone for their help |
maybe it's not the meat but the fillers he was allergic to. corn, soy, rice; some dogs are allergic to chicken and beef; but can have lamb, fish, venison, duck, rabbit meat. however if this veggie diet is working then stick to it. make sure there are no bad fillers in there; and as for the treats no need for them. food alone is enough; they really don't need or thrive on treats. good luck |
Actually I don't really want to give him any human food. Because I don't want him think he's spoiled by eating human food & becoming picky. If he only want treat as meal. then I have to stop giving him treat until he eat his real dry food. I know i sound like a mean mommy. But...I am also training him to becoming my hearing assistance dog too. so he need to learn where his limition is. I only give him bone to chew on it still help with teething. until his teething is all over then no more bones after that. meat are usually contains in the dry food... and i discovered he's allegry to soybean and flexseed too...ahh!!! what next?...no I don't want to know LOL...I just want do what is necessary to get him healthy even if i have to stop give him certain bones, treats, dry food, etc. I am not just going to ignore my baby's health problem if he has reaction to certain food, treat, bone. I know some people will say "his stomach just still growing he will get use to it..." well..my pup isn't like that...he do indeed have exteremly sentivite stomach. if you give him treat like chicken treat or any treats that has meat in, then he ends up throwing up all day & night for 24 hrs.... |
