Should I fast or go bland? ( Prin stay out)
Question: Somebody Kita Got herself into some kibble last night after she ate her raw dinner, and vomited like a mad dog.... she isnt used to kibble anymore and by the looks of it, she gorged Anyway... most of her meal came out much like it went in ( Prin if your in here I warned you ) whole kibbles, bones and meat... So... should i fast her today or feed her bland??? If Bland is the best plan... what should i feed her? Thanks... * Shes not ill, or showing any signs of discomfort ( actually shes her usual self), I feel no need for a vet visit* Answer: How many times a day do you feed? I would probably just feed normally. Sounds like she just ate too much. If you really want to be cautious, skip one meal, then feed normal again. Answer: Since she's acting like her normal self I would feed bland tonight. You can boil some chicken or lean hamburger and mix with rice. Answer: been there, done that I would fast for 12 hours (give water and maybe some broth) to give her tummy a break, make sure her system is "clean" and then feed normally. when they say "to be sick like a dog", now you know why! LOL amazing how they can purge themselves eh? remember that many raw feeders fast their dogs for a day once in a while anyways, so it won't hurt kita. guess you'll put that kibble under lock and key from now on eh? Answer: No, doggy puke is ok. I agree- fast for at least one meal and if she's still ill during the fast, maybe another 12 hours. Answer: LOL Prin, i thought i would give a good warning for you just incase! TD... You betcha im gonna be locking that kibble up! Lesson learnt! ScottB I feed once a day, I think tonight i'll just give half a feeding Thanks y'all for the advice! Answer: Thanks for the thought.

If you know it was the kibble that made her sick, there's no reason to upset her stomach further by offering her yet a different diet. Just fast her to rest her stomach (or don't... it's your call), then offer her usual meal. Answer: Decided on a fast... figured it wouldnt hurt to give her a break... In the morning im gonna give her half of her meal and then the rest at night tomorrow. Shes doing great still , so definately her attempt at bulimea Answer: Copyright © 2007 - 2008 www.tendlife.com
