“Worship the LORD your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you.” Exodus 23:25 NIV
After a few days of “tummy trouble,” Famous seems to be back to a regular routine. A dog’s diet should be regular to prevent illness. But if signs of vomiting or diarrhea occur, careful monitoring should be done with awareness that a veterinarian may need to be consulted. Since I was able to be home with Famous this week, I was able to monitor his disposition and energy level and restrict his intake of food and water while looking for any signs of dehydration. If a dog has a longer sickness and unable to get back to a regular diet, then a vet visit will help identify any infection or dehydration, and you might need to try giving him a bland diet to transition back to solid foods. Examples are cooked, plain white rice, scrambled egg, cottage cheese, boiled chicken or turkey, and boiled potato.
All healing flows from the Lord.
Grant me healing of body and mind throughout today.
