How to help a dog with a sensitive stomach?
Just like humans, dogs get indigestion from time to time. If you notice any of the following symptoms after eating your dog, he may have a sensitive stomach.
A single upset stomach in healthy dogs is not a cause for concern. But persistent or severe upset may indicate a more serious problem with the gastrointestinal tract. Visit the veterinarian to ask questions about your dog’s health.
What can you do?
If you think your pet has sensitive digestion, there are some steps you can take to help keep his body running like clockwork.
- Be careful. Try to make sure your dog doesn’t eat garbage, spoiled food, or anything suspicious.
- Don’t give dog leftovers from the table or food for people.
- Reduce the intervals between meals. Dogs that eat quickly swallow large amounts of air. Feed often and in small portions throughout the day.
- Be consistent. Any change in diet can lead to indigestion in animals. If you change food, you need to do it gradually: gradually add new food to the old one, gradually increasing the proportion of the new one.
- Feed your dog a complete, balanced diet. It will be difficult for a pet to digest food made from low quality ingredients.
