What To Do When Your Dog Has The Runs

Sure. There are nicer things to write about. But we’ve all been there, and we’re often stumped.

The dog has diarrhea. It’s very common but sometimes quite difficult to resolve. Our first inclination is to try and understand what’s causing it: did the pup get into something when we weren’t watching? Are we feeding the pup the right food? Is there a food allergy? A virus, perhaps? Who knows. But it’s happening and we want it to stop . . . for our sake and the dog’s! You can always call your veterinarian for advice. You can also try to figure it out on your own, at least initially. Fasting, a bland diet, and pumpkin are but a few of the remedies.
