If necessary carry on with the chicken and rice, orr fish and rice for several days just to settle the digestion, and don't give too much either - dogs can survive a few days on lean rations without suffering too much (other than looking longingly at your plate of food!)

Then very gradually over several days introduce a highly digestible food until you're just feeding that. If symptoms persist though you ought to see the vet to see if there are any underlying problems.

It's tricky to decide when to take your pup to the vet when he/she has diarrhoea. Our little cocker has had on and off 'puppy tummy' ever since he came home. He's now just over a year old, and is still having problems.

He's had samples sent to the labs, been on 24 hour starvation and then Canine ID for a while and we frequently have to put him on a diet of tuna/chicken and rice. Most recently he went to see the vet as he was off his food, and they put it down to the weather - surprisingly, absolutely right - he's back to his perky self now that the snow has gone!!

I would check the little things - treats/chews etc. We think that Satch has a problem with certain chews (e.g. rawhide) - since we've restricted him to Wainwright and James Wellbeloved treats and Dentastix chews, he seems to be doing better.

still perservering with Sam's diet but he is constantly hungry and seaches for food all the time. He has been on Rice and chicken for about a week now, so wil try and introduce some JWB lamb and rice to the diet and steadily increase and see what happens. He is pretty smelly from the rear end and has had previous trouble with glands which the vet sorted, could the diarrhea have made them worse?
