My dog have diarrhea and vomiting from yesterday. I remember him eating pomegranate the other day. Is it because of that? How do I treat him now?

Hi, pomegranate is not toxic and can be given in moderate amounts. As long as he has not eaten the rind and not taken too much I don't think that has caused the GI upset. Unlink small dogs It should not be very difficult for a golden retriever to pass the seeds out, but next time you can give him fresh pomegranate extract or juice (home made, commercial juice will have lot of sugar) instead. You can start him on a probiotic, synfosium is a good option one a day for a week.

However if he is not feeling better please get him checked and see if we need to start him on some antibiotics. You can keep him on boiled eggs or boiled chicken breast muscles (shredded), white boiled mashed potatoes and white rice(overcooked and soft) for now, this would be easy to digest. Also avoid giving and other vegetables/ fruits for now.

Hello doctors/pet parents, I have a male shih tzu, 4 months old. For the first time i introduced chicken with veggies to him in small portions 2 times a day (approx 60 gms in total). On the same day i feeded quinoa (also first time) with veggies, 1 egg, kibbles etc (his daily meal plans throught out the day). Due to change in food, he had diarrhea and loose motion 5 times. I gave him pumpkin today and seems its subsided, he hasn't pooped yet. I think i might have overfed him on the day of introducing chicken. Should have done in phases and gradually. i believe quinoa (due to high fiber) might have caused the loose motion or may be chicken itself. So my question - when can i next introduce chicken to him again? Thanks.
