Advice on looking after a dog with vomiting/diarrhoea?

[Miss Meow]

Schnaggles was ill yesterday. Must've eaten something that didn't agree with him, I think it was dried liver treats, after cleaning up the carpet ...

Anyway, I kept him quiet, no food and made sure he was drinking water. By the end of the day he had some energy back and had a small bit of chicken last night. No messes this morning, so now his tummy is OK. Is there anything else I should/could be doing for him?

If that's the first time he's thrown up & he seems to keep
water down I would just watch him for the next 24hrs or so
for any chance from normal in the way he's acting. I'm sure
you'll already do those things.:)

Hope Schnaggles is feeling better soon.:)

Thanks :)

His stomach is a little more delicate than Buffy's so we have to be careful about the numerous things he vacuums into his mouth :o

Let your dog eat grass. Grass has a natural healing properties for animals. Make sure the grass has NOT been chemically treated. Tall grasses seem to do well. You can also purchase grasses at a Pet store. It is good for them and they should eat some grass regardless of being ill.
