When a dog has diarrhea or vomits, it is time to resort to therapeutic fasting. This consists of not offering any food until two or four hours after vomiting or defecation.
Next, we can move on to offering liquids, with Moro soup being especially popular, a very effective homemade recipe. Finally, when we observe that the diarrhea or vomiting has stopped and that the animal is digesting the soup well, we can give way to a soft diet, with foods such as boiled chicken, turkey or pumpkin.
Moro soup is a popular recipe that, originally, was used for diarrhea in humans, especially children. However, today, it is much more popular for treating dogs with diarrhea, vomiting and other digestive and gastrointestinal problems. It is a very simple recipe to prepare, with only three ingredients – carrots, water and salt – which provides many benefits for the dog.
First of all, it is an easily digestible food, so it will not hurt your stomach or irritate your gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, it feeds it without worsening its symptoms, in fact relieving them, reducing inflammation and discomfort.
In addition, it will help the animal's hydration, since vomiting and diarrhea usually cause dehydration. It also has an interesting nutritional contribution, as it consists of fiber, vitamins, electrolytes and carbohydrates. As if that were not enough, it is very tasty and appetizing for dogs, who will consume it willingly, which does not always happen with treatment foods such as digestive cans.
As we have previously mentioned, you should wait a few hours before giving your dog food or liquids after vomiting or suffering from diarrhea. After that time, you can start giving him the Moro soup in about three or four feedings distributed throughout the day. The amount of servings will depend on the size, breed, age and lifestyle of your dog.
It is advisable that you offer him a small amount first to see if he likes it and digests it well. Although it is a safe recipe, it is not indicated in cases of dogs with specific food allergies or intolerances. If the animal's vomiting or diarrhea persists, it is imperative to go to the veterinarian.
