Oh, dear! Well, I am sure that someone suggested this on another thread but yogurt will help to get your dog's gatrointestinal system back in order (yes, I read about the incident about the tandoori chicken--that sucks. But try to think positive: at least it wasn't rat poison or something really harmful!)

I have never used these but they may be worth a try:

Yep get you some lime dust from a feed store and sprinkle it in your yard it helps and now you might want to get a yard maintenance plan going so no more flies .

If the yard is that bad, I'd be more concerned w/ the diarrhea and get her to a vet.

You could dig hole and scrape it in and bury it.

My thoughts exactly!


edit: Just saw your post about her getting to some chicken....If she is not better today, a vet visit is def. in order. That pup will dehydrate in no time at all.

I am so happy to hear that. Hopefully, she is feeling better now, as well.

I would also call your vet. Yogurt is great to relieve GI issues but it can also mask/temporarily relieve a more serious issue. It is great for getting the situation under control but a vet call/visit is still a good idea to be on the safe side. Good luck and keep us posted
