Hi,my 3 year old Jess has had a squeaky stomach for a few days,on and off.Shes fine "in herself"but occasionally doesnt want her food,And eats grass quite a lot,Obviously somethings not right in the tum dept,I was considering putting her on a small amount of chicken and rice,or chappie for a day or two,to see if itll settle.
Im wondering if its the minced beef shes been having,as theyve not had a lot of that before.As she is raw fed,would chicken and rice,or chappie be ok,please?or any other ideas?My sister always used to give milk to her little dog to cure his squeaky tum.Thanks in advance!

I find raw green tripe good for settling tums in raw fed dogs. its full of good enzymes etc

It might be the grass that has started it. Has your grass started growing again yet?  Mine always have a renewed interest in eating grass as soon as the spring growth starts and this often gives them a squeaky tum.  It generally comes with a change in appetite and I find that having increased their food a little over the winter that it's then time to cut it back a smidgeon.
