Quick question–diarrhea

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • Akeyla has had diarrhea for a day now and I have read all the threads I can about diarrhea but I still have a question. I withheld food for 12 hours and then feed her chicken and rice last night. She doesn't seem to care much for the rice just the chicken. So…my quesion is can I replace the rice with plain oatmeal?
    Also I didnt change anything about her diet to cause this frequent diarrhea however she is not going quite as much as yesterday. So any other advice anyone can give me will help.
    Thanks!!

  • You could try a little yogurt. Cook up some yams in place of the rice.

    Who would have thought that worms were so interesting. My farm vet insists that dogs be wormed monthly but mine are on a weekly homeopathic wormer. I'm so pleased that Nahla has got rid of hers. And i accept what others have said about the possibility of a pup womitting up a worming tablet.

    I know you can't know if she was weaned too early, but I have seen other dogs "comfort suckle" their toes or the ear tips of another dog. Does she make nursing motions with her mouth and tongue when falling asleep? We had an orphan calf (years ago) that would seek out the first 2 fingers on any available hand to calm/comfort himself. He did this well into adult hood.
