How Do You Use Home Remedies To Help A Vomiting Dog?
“How do I help my dog at home if he starts vomiting?”…It’s a common question among dog owners. A dog may get an upset stomach due to a virus, from eating a new, unfamiliar food or from eating a non-food item. Whatever the cause, it’s important to closely monitor a dog who is vomiting, while also providing supportive care and home remedies to speed recovery. Begin by assessing the situation. Check your dog for signs of critical illness. Signs of a serious problem that requires immediate veterinary attention includes: pale gums, difficulty walking, walking with a hunched posture, a high temperature (normal is between 100.5 and 102.5) or severe dehydration. Do not feed your dog normal dog food. This will only upset his/her stomach further. Remove access to dog food. Give your dog a dosage of Pepto Bismol. The Pepto Bismol dosage for dogs is 1 teaspoon for every 20 pounds of body weight, given every 4 to 6 hours. Check with your veterinarian before giving any over-the-counter medications
