Help with diarrhea

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • I *think you should be okay if you really watch closely. If he did eat a quantity of cardboard, it can definitely make a blockage. If he is pooping, eating, and acting normally, chances are he will be fine…but if any of those things are off, I would get him in. Whatever goes in needs to come out in approximately the same quantity, or he might have a partial blockage.

    I hope things get better very soon! :)

    @nick4 Sounds like an allergy or something biting him. For sure the vets and see what they say. Benadryl for sure, as far as I know it does no harm if you dose correctly.

    I am so glad I happened on this thread! We are leaving for an extended trip and the idea of the baby rice cereal and meats is a wonderful suggestion - I am right now in the process of trying to get my girl over a diahrrea problem - have been making the hamburg/rice/cottage cheese up, but as was said, on the road that will be a problem. This Forum is a great place for help, and thanks, guys/girls.

    @JazzysMom: Oh sorry, should have been more clear. I just sent my dogs' blood to Bryan, HE sent it on for testing. I was just replying as to where/how to physically mail the blood, not so much as related to the testing itself. Me too, should have been more clear, I was really responding to etzbseder about the CPP site and submitting blood, didn't even look to see the message was from you…. ggg
