Frequently Asked Questions
What is a bland diet for dogs?
A bland diet is a specific meal plan that is often recommended by veterinarians to dogs suffering from gastroenteritis (stomach and digestive issues). Because bland diets typically consist of milder ingredients, they are often the ideal way to help "reset" dogs with stomach issues. Oftentimes, a bland diet will consist of simple, low-fat proteins that are boiled and accompanied by a boiled starch/carbohydrate such as rice or sweet potato.
What can I feed my dog on a bland diet?
What foods settle a dog's stomach? Bland diets for dogs will typically consist of one source of lean protein such as chicken, turkey or hamburger and one source of a complex carbohydrate such as rice, sweet potato, or oatmeal. One of the most often recommended recipes by veterinarians is a meal composed of boiled chicken breast and boiled white rice. These meals should not contain any additional flavors or seasonings. Designed to ease an upset stomach and sooth digestive discomfort or diarrhea, bland diets are used to reset a dog's digestive system.
What do dogs do when their stomach hurts?
When dogs have an upset stomach (gastroenteritis), the most obvious indications will be vomiting and diarrhea. Other signs include loss of energy, having a tense or scrunched-up position, stretching the front paws out repeatedly, gas, swollen stomach (this could be an idication of a medical ermergency), gulping or gagging to avoid vomiting, weight loss. During these instances, a bland diet is an ideal way to provide nourishment with soothing ingredients.
What causes stomach aches in dogs?
Like humans, there are many things that can cause stomach aches in dogs and many of them are quite similar. Eating food that has gone bad, changes in diet, or eating specific foods that don't agree with a canines digestive system are all common causes. Additionally, eating something they shouldn't have, such as grass, can cause complications. Also, parasites are often a cause for stomach pain in dogs because of their natural behavior of rooting with their muzzles in the ground. Viruses and bacteria infections are just as common. More severe causes can include kidney or liver failure, stomach ulcers, heat stroke, toxins or poisons, or foreign objects in the intestines. Often not considered but just as possible is emotional stress.
How many cups of bland diet should I feed my dog?
A dog that is on a bland diet should eat an amount that is based on the dog's weight. For dogs weighing less than 20 pounds, we typically recommend 1/4-1/2 cup of our Under the Weather Bland Diet products (cooked) twice daily. For dogs weighing between 20 and 50 pounds, 1/2 to 3/4 cup of cooked meals will suffice. For dogs weighing more than 50 pounds, we recommend 1 cup of cooked food twice daily. These serving sizes may be less than what your dog normally eats but it's important to not overfeed your pet while they get past their digestive issues.
