Hi, If the dog is otherwise eating and acting normally, you can try to switch to a bland diet of boiled chicken breast and white rice for the next few days. If she does not develop vomiting and diarrhea after 2-3 days, gradually transition back to normal diet by mixing the bland diet and normal food together for another 5-7 days. However, if any gastrointestinal signs such as vomiting, diarrhea, reduced appetite start or the dog becomes lethargic, you will need to go to the vet for further evaluation and supportive treatment.
