Upset stomach and diarrhea management: If our staff observes your dog is suffering from upset stomach or diarrhea and they are otherwise acting normal, then the first thing we will do is hold them off food for 12 hours. This allows everything to clear out of the intestinal tract and allows the intestines to rest. When withholding food, remember that this includes treats, bones, or anything else that’s edible. Our Staff will contact you to inform you of any stomach upset or diarrhea symptoms. Once the stools have returned back to normal, we will then slowly transition back to your pet’s normal diet.
