Four Foods to Feed Your Dog When He’s Sick
The following four foods are intended for dogs with mild stomach upset, including gas, nausea, constipation, and diarrhea. Since these symptoms are sometimes signs of a more serious problem, always consult your vet before handling the treat with your hands. Dogs with existing health conditions such as diabetes, cancer, allergies, and senior dogs may need additional nutrition to stay healthy.
Chicken and rice: Chicken and rice are staple ingredients in many dog foods, and these snack foods go well with an upset dog stomach. All you need is boneless, skinless chicken breast and rice.
Shredded Chicken: Regular, unseasoned, boiled and shredded chicken is easy to digest and packed with vitamins, minerals, fats and essential amino acids, making it a great snack for dogs feeling under the weather.
Pumpkin: Pumpkin is rich in fiber, which helps to regulate the digestive system of dogs. Cooked, peeled, and unsalted pumpkin contains vitamin E, thiamin, niacin, vitamin B6, folic acid, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, riboflavin, potassium, copper and manganese.
Bone broth: Bone broth is a very light liquid meal that can easily go into an upset dog stomach. It is also a nutritious and delicious way to add moisture and flavor to dry food and encourage dogs with low appetites.
