I give mine rice and lean hamburg. I drain all the juice out. Mix the rice together and give them some of that. I have also heard of cottage cheese is good too. If it doesn't clear by 2 days then I bring them to the vet with a stool sample. Good luck! I hope he feels better soon.

I wouldn't do the pumpkin for this. I was always told to withhold feeding until it passes. You can give alittle amodium AD for children, IF it is really watery stools. But I would ask you Vet first. It usally will pass with in a day or so. If not, You still need to call the Vet. It could be a number of things wrong. Sometimes they get a bacteria in the intestines and it needs meds. And watch for blood in the stool.

Our vet had us feed our pug boiled chicken and rice. This has helped our little pugs. Hope he feels better soon!

What started this in the first place, do you know? Change in diet? Did Dudley get into anything (something on the floor)?

Are the stools real watery?

Do the "pinch" test. Grab some loose skin and pinch it (not to hurt them, but just to raise up the skin). Does it stay up or does it spring back into place? This will tell you if Dudley is getting dehydrated.
