I did not realize that switching flavors of the same dog brand of food would cause Armani to get diarrhea. He now has to go every 1.5 hours

I felt so bad I stayed up all night just watching him. What is something I can do to help him get back to normal? I thought u cant switch the brand of food without being gradual, I didn realize flavor would have same effect.

I would give him hamburger and rice and make sure he is drinking water. The vet can give you meds to help settle his tummy. ALso pepto bismol may help. My Pom can only eat one flavor of Cesars all attempts to switch her to a better food caused majot stomach issues. Now the other 2 I have been giving them several different foods due to recalls and they tolerate it fine. Hope he feels better soon.
