My dog has diarrhea. What are home remedies if I can't afford a vet?

Other causes of diarrhea include intestinal worms, eating something rotten, a foreign body, or a GI illness. I can give you a home remedy to see if that helps Suzi's diarrhea, but if it doesn't, you will need to take her into the vet. At the bottom of my answer, I can give you some resources that may help you afford a vet should you need to take her in. Home remedy: Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the diarrhea continues on the bland diet, she starts vomiting food, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away. Affording a vet: You can see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or you can apply for Care Credit online. There is also an organization called Red Rover that give grants for treatment of sick animals, and you can see if you qualify for one of their grants. Best Friends also has a list of resources that offer financial assistance on their website. http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_pet.html?credit=web_id91754962 https://www.redrover.org https://www.carecredit.com http://bestfriends.org/resources/financial-aid-pets http://lessonsfromaparalyzeddog.com/when-pet-owners-cant-afford-veterinary-bills/ God's Creatures Ministry helps pay for veterinarian bills for those who need help.
 The Onyx & Breezy Foundation has many programs including helping people with medical bills. They are a good resource for information.
 Brown Dog Foundation provides funding to families with a sick pet that would likely respond to treatment, but due to circumstances, there is not enough money immediately available to pay.

It may be stress from the groomer that is causing Thalia's diarrhea. It could also be that the groomer gave her a treat she has never had before causing it. I can give you a home remedy to try to see if that helps. Feed her a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the diarrhea continues on the bland diet, she refuses to eat the bland diet, she starts vomiting food, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!

withhold food for 8 hours then offer Rita boiled boneless chicken and rice every 6 hours in small portions. if he is eating and not vomiting, continue with this diet for 2-3 days. After 2-3 days, you can put her back gradually on her normal diet. If the diarrhea doesn't stop, take her to the vet to get treatment.

Your poor pup! The color of her diarrhea could be from eating a lot of grass, but it could also be from intestinal parasites, rat poisoning, or other illnesses.

Poor Amaya! If she is still continuing to get ill, I would seek out veterinary care in person ASAP as it is possible she is experiencing severe GI upset or got into something potentially harmful. If she has since settled down and stopped having vomiting or diarrhea episodes, and it's been several hours, you can attempt a bland meal of boiled rice and chicken to help settle her stomach for a few days, and then transition back to her regular food. However if she continues to vomit or have diarrhea, has blood in any of it, a painful abdomen, or her symptoms worsen or new ones appear, a veterinary visit ASAP is needed.

It depends on how long Tara has had diarrhea. If it's been less than 24 hours, you can try the following home remedy. Withhold food for 12 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the diarrhea continues on the bland diet, she starts vomiting food, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away. If it's been longer than 24 hours, yes take her into the vet. I hope this helps!
