Yorkshire Terrier - not well?

Question

Got a Yorkie (5 yrs old) & this weekend she has been eating grass ( which I know they do to clear their stomach) but also has the runs & very 'windy' - think she has eaten something that didnt agree with her.... not given her any food today to try & get rid of whatever is upsetting her system, but tomorrow will feed her again.... shes drinking plenty of water & a few dry biscuits Whats the best thing give her.....heard somewhere, that boiled chicken or boiled fish is good for an upset stomach?? Is that right

Answer 1

boiled chicken and rice would be great - just remember little and often for a few days and then gradually introduce her normal food. as for the grass - some dogs (like mine) just like to eat grass!! I've spoken to my vet about it and its quite normal for some dogs to just develop a liking for grass. Hope youre little one is better soon, but remember if the upset stomach doesn't clear up, even with the chicken and rice, it might be worth a visit to the vet for some antibiotics. It could be a virus, but its easily treated.

Answer 2

I give my dog some pepto  about a teaspoon of it  when she gets the runs and that really helps her  GOOD LUCK :)  If that doesnt work i would take her to the vet  but the pepto really does work you can also try some rice i use that as well maybe mix a little chicken breast in with it  

Answer 3

yeahh and also try spaghettie sauce or tomatoe soup it's very healthy for them and cures or makes them feel better. you could also try letting her lay down on a heating pad.

Answer 4

I have one at home

Answer 5

Sounds like you are doing everything right.

Boiled hamburg and rice is what i use - not too much at a time.

PS   Dogs eat grass for a lot of reasons.

Answer 6

my dog had that too, but its gone, it just went away after he ate lots of grass=]

Answer 7

my 4 month yorkie is just back from an overnite stay at the vets cause she ate a lot of sand.  The vet said the best thing 2 feed her for the next couple of days is scrambled eggs cause its quite bland and easy on the tummy.

Answer 8

feed them their natural food, cats..
