Intestinal obstruction in dog - Questions and Answers

Q: How can I change my dogs diet without causing him to get diarrhea?
A: Try not to change the dog's food suddenly because it can cause him to get an upset stomach and diarrhea. In order to avoid this, try to change his food little by little. Start out by mixing three parts of the current food with one part of the new food. And gradually switch to the new food product.

Q: I think that my collie Lucy has food allergy. She frequently has diarrhea, what should I do about it?
A: Dogs don't usually have food allergies because a dog's organism causes an immune reaction when it eats, and testing to see if the dog does is a bit complicated. Veterinarians prefer to call this disorder "food intolerance", which means that the dog does not tolerate what it is eating and its possible that Lucy's problem is intolerance to certain food or foods. Get in touch with your veterinarian to see what you can do to resolve this problem.
