My dog has chronic diarrhea and vomiting. What holistic options?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Miniature Poodle | Male | neutered | 10 months and 5 days old | 15 lbs

Jack was diagnosed with colitis at 9 weeks old. He has bouts of diarrhea and vomiting. Is on a GI food and gets limited treats. He acts disinterested in his food some so I occasionally add boiled chicken. All tests we’ve done come back negative. this am (after clostridium treated with 2 wks of meds and doing 100% better) he had diarrhea on his walk twice. Is there anything holistic I can try? It breaks my heart that he seems to have such a sensitive tummy so often.

I'm sorry your pup has had so much trouble! My pup has the same trouble. Make sure they are on a good probiotic! That really helps. Find a good Holistic vet to help you tailor your supplements to best help your pet. I really like Standard Process Enteric support, which you get from a Chiropractor, Vet etc. I use Animal Apawthecary Colon Rescue which you can get over the counter, to help with the diarrhea. Find a good Holistic vet, Acupuncturist or Vet Chiropractor to help you out!
