I had an e-mail from america today from the breeder that I am getting Barbie from with new picture, and ser mentioned  that one other the pups that are at her kennels has had the runs and she was giving it pumpkin as this always clears it up, has anyone else come across this remedy, I have emailed her for more info but it usually takes time for her to get back to me, any one tried this?

Yes I`ve used the fresh pumpkin, but too much can also have the opposite effect. You can get tinned in UK but make sure it`s unsweetened. :)

I have. I bought a couple of pumpkins at Hallowe'en and prepared and froze the flesh in portions

Have heard of that as well..Also if dogs eat poo feeding them pumpkin is suppose to stop them from eating poo

Shame we can only get fresh pumpkin at Halloween!

The tinned ones from Sainsbury's are very good I find.
