That's just what he said. I have a bag of the ID kibble from almost two years ago. Dolly won't eat it, so when Desi has diarrhea it takes it away pretty quickly. Dolly won't eat it, so I give her a little canned food with a little pumpkin and some pedialyte.she likes it. She is having some poopy problems.I just came home from a walk with Dolly & Desi. She pooped three times and the first part looked OK and then there was a little of a yellow/orange color.and then the next time it was the yellow/orange color and more wet, and then the third time it was more wet than the time before. I have to put her on the pumpkin diet again. Usually she goes potty in the back yard and I can see that she is pooping, but that makes it hard for me to see if she was the one with diarrhea. Desi had the yellow bile that came up a few days ago, that is why he is on ID right now. I just assumed the diarrhea was his because he was sick, but maybe it is Dolly that is sick. A little pumpkin and pedialyte isn't going to hurt her. I just wonder what the two of them have been eating outside.I may just take a sample of her droppings and have it looked at. She shouldn't have worms.but she is the one that had colitis when she was a baby!

Most diarrhea is of a short nature. If it is a long and constant thing then there are underlying issues. _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joan Croft Sent: Monday, February 28, 2011 6:02 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] Diarrhea I messaged my vet about the diarrhea: The I/D diet by Hills is the best to stop diarrhea. I am not a big fan of Pepto Bismol i do not think it works well for dogs with diarrhea. I would try chicken and rice or I/D and make sure the pet is free of parasites. If that is not working i would have the pet seen.
