Yesterday my 6 month old pitbull ate a few small dog toys. I induce vomiting with hydrogen peroxide and they all came out. Today he is having diarrhea. He is eating drinking and breathing normal.

Poor pup! Withhold food for 8-12 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.
