If you can - buy some canned pumpkin. Not pumpkin pie mix, just plain pumpkin. Also buy some pediatlite and try to get your baby to drink some. If he/she won't - use a syringe (without the needle) and "inject" some into his/her mouth every hour or so. Plain, unsweetened yorgurt will also be good and if you can, feed your baby some cooked (unseasoned) chicken mixed with brown rice.

This is the advice that I got from Yorkietalk when my baby was just tiny and had "the runs". My vet said it was "exactly" what I should have been doing and probably saved her life as she was just 1.2 pounds at the time. They can become dehydrated so very quickly that you really have to be careful.

Thanks guys..
It has happenned before, but then i just took really care with his food, making sure he eats and drinks. It went away for a long time, but happenned again.
Some said that it could be fatal so, i made an appointed to see my vet this afternoon.
Thanks again!!

How's you baby doing? I hope the trip to the vet helped.

Wylie's Mom · 05-13-2009, 08:01 AM

What are you feeding, btw? What did the fecal test say?

Lenkie · 05-13-2009, 09:39 PM

I took him to the vet and he said it could be the fact that my baby gets a little bit of milk every morning. the fecal test is coming back today.
I feed him the Hills science plan as that is the best food on the market here in south africa? We dont have a fariety. he gets some fresh veggies in the evenings.

Zet is now also a big bother as i gat another baby yesterday.!!

I will introduce him and post photos as soon as i have him groomed etc.
His name is trompie.

It could be the milk. If stopping the milk doesn't help - you may want to consider those veggies. Veggies (fresh especially) can be tough for some dogs to digest - and for those dogs, they can be very irritating to the digestive system. If you find it is the veg. but want to continue to give them, then you might think about steaming and giving -or- steaming and pulverizing, then giving.

Did the vet do a fecal test? I sure hope so. Just to rule out anything serious than anything in his diet. I would certainly stop feeding him milk >
