Help! Milo has diarrhoea to feed or not if so what?

Hi all my dh let me lay in this morning but when he came downstairs to the kitchen which is Milo's room there was poo literally everywhere up the walls, doors the lot My dh fed him his usual BARF food this morning which was chicken legs and wings which I was a bit cross about. He was so pooey I had to bath him and omg the smell was awfull Milo seems ok in himself really but not as perky as usual.

We were out at a kids party and he went to pick his brother and returned to find some more poopy bit and he was desperate to go out (been left about an hour and had no further episodes since this a.m.) The question is as he's fed a totally BARF diet what should we feed him? There used to be a thought that you should starve them but thet's swayed these days to keep feeding to work the bug through, what are your thoughts guys?

BTW I'm certain it's not food contamination as we get his food out frozen am for the pm and vice versa....however we were out on a dog walk with his play friend and both of them spend alot of their time in the water, most of it stagnent and some black bog areas too, he was bathed when we got home as he always is after these jaunts! Maybe he's contracted some bacterial infection?

IMO I would strave for 24 hours, then introduce some very bland food, cooked chicken and rice for a couple of days and then hopefully all will be back to normal

Poor thing they are such worry. Xx

thanks Janey been googling and seems you are spot on! I hope he will be ok as I recall from this forum somewhere dogs can get v. poorly from water whilst out sometimes

He'll be fine, if carries on for any longer that 24 hours then pop to the vets Xx

hope so, thanks

Hope milo is feeling better soon

well he's been starved since this morning as he's only fed am and pm but he has had another episode about 1/2 hour ago, poor little thing. Hubby is home tommorrow so can keep a close eye on him, I hope a vet visit won't be in order for all of our sakes.

Give it 24 hours until you worry Xx

lol ok mum! x

Hope Milo is better soon ><

Hows Milo today ?

Hi all, thanks

Today I took him on a play date with his friend as he seemed more or less ok, needless to say he had a great time with his pal Joy in the orchards He had a bit of loose poo on walk but he only had rice yesterday. Given him 2 gently scrambled eggs with his tea in the hope it will help bing him up a bit x

Sounds like he is getting better

Yay, they are a worry! Mines got kennel cough oh well, if its not one thing its another!! Xx

Oh no Janey that's rubbish, hope Moo gets better real soon x

Give your dog some mashed pumpkin and then a spoon of honey.

Hi thanks I read about the pumpkin somewhere and it said I recall *must be fresh not tinned lol!! We're all good here now but thanks x

Glad to hear Milo is back to normal
