My puppy ate hot dogs, has loose stools & won't eat dog food. Help!

Question

Hi! I have a 12 week old yorkie, Bud. My dad fed him raw hot dogs, now we can’t get him to eat dog food and he has loose bowels. Any suggestions to break this? Pet's info: Dog | Yorkshire Terrier | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 23 days old | 2 lbs

Poor Bud. Withhold food for 6 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the diarrhea continues on the bland diet, he starts vomiting food, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. Best of luck.
