How to Treat a Dog"s Stomach Ache

Like a small child, your dog can’t tell you when he has a stomach ache. Similar to a small child, the first warning you are likely to get that all is not right with your dog’s digestive track is when he vomits on your carpet. Fortunately, the treatment for a dog’s stomach ache is not terribly different from how you would treat your own. With diet and some basic over-the-counter medications, your best canine friend can be back to normal in no time.

Instructions

1


Start with the treats. Some dogs can have an averse digestive reaction to rawhide chew treats. If your dog is one of them, you’ll know pretty much immediately and the solution is simple–ban all future rawhide treats from your home. It is also common for treats high in fat to cause similar digestive upset. For example, the soft treats that look like miniature steaks are particularly hard for some dogs to digest, so their system gets rid of them–all over the floor. If your dog is having a chronic upset stomach, start a log of what treats he is getting and when, and see if there is any connection.




2





Feed the bland. When you feel sick, you tend to gravitate toward bland food–crackers, broth and toast–to help settle your stomach. What works for you can work for your dog as well. Try feeding him low sodium chicken broth, or a mixture of boiled rice and boiled hamburger (or boiled chicken) for a day or two until his tummy settles down.




3





Go for the pink. While there are not many over-the-counter medications for people that also work on dogs, Pepto-Bismol is one of them. One or two spoonfuls should be enough for your dog, depending on his size. Please note that dogs generally do not like the taste of Pepto-Bismol (especially the wintergreen kind), and will resist. You will want to attempt dosage in an easily cleaned area like the kitchen–or better yet, outside.




4





If your dog just cannot seem to stop the cycle, give him some Benadryl. Dogs don’t process Benadryl like we do, and will simply “mellow out” if you give yours one tablet per 10 lbs. of weight. Maybe just a little rest is all your dog needs to get his tummy under control.




5





Give your dog a break. An otherwise healthy dog can actually benefit from a weekly day of fasting, and a sick dog may just need to completely “clean out the system” in order to stop feeling sick. If your dog cannot keep a meal of boiled rice and ground beef down, try not feeding him anything for 24 hours before you feed him again. Make sure that he has plenty of fresh water.

Sample Request for Olewo Carrots

Are you looking at your dog’s stool?

We have asked this question many times while we had a local pet store.  Some customers were examining their dog’s stool, and others responded “Heck no, why would I want to look at my dog’s poop?”  It really is important to know what your dog’s stool normally looks like to determine if there is a problem when there is a concern.

Keep your dog hydrated!

A big concern during episodes of diarrhea is dehydration.  Make sure your dog has plenty of water to keep him or her hydrated!  If necessary, use a syringe to force your dog to ingest some water.  During this time of discomfort, it may be hard to get your dog interested in drinking or eating at all.  Even in this situation, Olewo Carrots come to the rescue.  Since Olewo Carrots need to be rehydrated with water, your dog will automatically ingest some much needed liquid.  Dogs love the taste of Olewo Carrots and they will most likely eat it, even if they are not interested in eating anything else.  In this situation, the rehydrated Olewo Carrots can be given by itself, and not mixed in with other food.

In most cases it is okay to try and remedy diarrhea at home before seeking medical attention, especially with the common causes of diarrhea listed below.

DIET

Diet is one of the most common causes for diarrhea.  With puppies, any change in diet can cause diarrhea because their digestive system is so young and has difficulty digesting new foods.  Adult dogs can get diarrhea because the dog food they are fed may not be ideal, it may be too high in fat or protein, may have irritating additives, or the dog may be allergic to one or some of the dog food ingredients.  Switching to a new dog food can also cause diarrhea if the transition happened to fast.  The dog may have also eaten something that wasn’t meant for consumption or may have eaten something that was unhealthy, like many treats that are on the market.

STRESS

Stress is the other common cause for diarrhea.  We often don’t think about it, but dogs can experience a tremendous amount of stress when left alone for long periods of time, when left in a confined area, when traveling, when going to the vet, groomer, or boarding facility. Dogs can even feel the tension when being around stressed people, and get nervous. Many adopted dogs may have experienced abuse and may never loose the nervousness, even if they end up in a loving home, which is the case with one of our own dogs.

DOG BREEDS PRONE TO DIGESTIVE ISSUES

Some dog breeds such as Australian Shepherds, Boxers, German Shepherds, Great Danes, Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, Terriers and others are simply prone to digestive issues and often have soft stools.

SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION

If the diarrhea does not improve, seek medical attention!  When dogs have liquid diarrhea, they may have a viral or intestinal infection.  If the condition persists, seek medical attention because of the high risk of dehydration in this situation. Any time there is blood in the stool or diarrhea, your dog could be experiencing a serious health problem.  Seek medical attention immediately!

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN TREATMENT

Olewo Dehydrated Carrots should be added to your dog’s regular meals daily to prevent diarrhea and other digestive issues.  The beta-carotene in dogs continuously repairs the intestinal lining and maintain good digestive health.  Prevention is always better than treatment!

Please note that Olewo Carrots is the ORIGINAL carrot product for dogs, and the only carrot product on the market that allows dogs to absorb and benefit from the many health-promoting nutrients found in carrots.  The same results cannot be achieved by feeding raw carrots, cooked carrots, or any other carrot product.
