I have a chuahua x yorkshire terrier and he suffers an awful lot of gastric problems and the cold along with diahorra .

He brings up alot of gooey stuff and blood and it got me really worried .

So i decided to change his diet from the dog food that you purchase in the supermarkets and tried him on homeopathic food which only helps a little.

After it not working permenantly i tried him on pasta , rice , chicken and fish .

This helped overnight !

So i thought i would post a few recipies to help any of you with simular problems :

PASTA AND TUNA FISH

1 TIN OF TUNA

2 HANDFULS OF PASTA TWISTS

Cook up the pasta by bringing a pan of water ( no salt) with a teaspoon of olive oil to the boil , add your pasta and let it simmer until your pasta is tender .

Drain your pasta off and put it into a plastic bowl ,next , drain off your tuna fish from the tin , dont buy tuna with vegtable oil , make sure to get the one with brine .

Leave a small amount of brine still inside the tin to give the pasta a nice flavour and tip your tin of tuna onto the pasta then mix it around until the pasta is covered then serve .

CHICKEN & RICE

1 breast of chicken

1 handful of rice

1 pinch of corriander

Bring a pan of water to the boil and add your rice .

Simmer until rice is soft but not starchy .

Boil you chicken until tender and drain but leave a tiny amount in the pan to put back on the hob , then add your corriander .

Drain your rice then put into a plastic bowl and cut up your chicken breast into little cubes , this will help your dog to digest itsuperior .

These are very easy things to help yourTiny pooch , you should see the difference in just 1 day , then when your pooch is better( i keep him on this diet for about 7-9 days) you can go back to tinned dog food , but please just wean them onto it , dont do a huge bowl first off as you will be back to square one ok .

This diet will make your dog put on weight as pasta is a swelling food .

To keep youTiny dog warm , try putting a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel onto your lap and then allowing youTiny dog climb onto it , it will help keep the under belly warm whilst you can put aTiny sheet over you dogs back if he’s still shivering as mine does an awful lot.
