If the diarrhea has just started, you can try a tablespoon of canned pumpkin with each meal to add fiber into the diet. You can also feed boiled chicken breast and cooked white rice for a few days to let the GI tract calm down. However, if the diarrhea lasts more than 48 hours, or if Bravery starts vomiting, has a poor appetite, and becomes lethargic, he should get checked out by a vet as soon as possible. Common causes of diarrhea in dogs includes food intolerance, food allergies, intestinal parasites, dietary indiscretion, bacterial or viral infection, stress colitis, among others.
