Gurgling, gurgling, gurgling! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hi everyone. I am so excited to be here. I have a little Morkie, but I can tell looking at her she has lots of Yorkie in here. I woke up this a.m. to the LOUDEST noises - her tummy was gurgling like I've NEVER heard before. She is about five months old. I called the vet right away, panicking, but they weren't open yet so I googled and found this forum. Imagine my surprise to see it is not uncommon for this! My little girl eats Wellness Puppy Food and I am VERY careful not to give her anything commercial - BUT yesterday the lady at Petco talked me into trying a Kong with some Chicken Liver stuff that you squirt in there - I am thinking it caused the problem. I tossed it right away. Question - after reading everything, should I pull her dry food too and just do the nutra cal..for a day? Then do the rice, etc.?? Any input would be GREAT. Thanks and God Bless.

I wouldn't pull her food. Welcome to YT and congratulations on your little furbaby. Looking forward to seeing some pictures.

I would not pull her food up either since she is a puppy and needs to eat, if you think she has a sensitive stomach today you could always boil some boneless skinless chicken and rice, just to be on the safe side. If you want her to chew maybe try a bullystick instead of the kong filled stuff, that made my puppy sick to and I have never used it since. Hope that helps!

My baby's have hours in day where their tummies do that, just like you or I its digesting. Sometimes its louder than others. Maybe the Kong stuff upset her tummy a bit, but I think it's pretty normal to have loud digestions once in awhile. One time I had it happen to me the same time as my baby had it happening to him... we were looking at each other like "Who was that??" LOL

Thanks guys you gave the same advise a vet did - I'm that type of "mommy" if I don't know what is going on, I am right away at the dr. I get kind of paranoid...

Anyways, you both told me the same thing, so PHEW..what a relief - I'm going to keep feeding her the Wellness Puppy Food and I got rid of the Kong treats..NO MORE! She is SO PRECIOUS. Sweet little girl. She pooped and peed and ate a little and she's running around playing, so I am relieved. Boy is she a tender little thing - I just love her!
