**Babyweight** · 01-04-2004, 10:26 PM

Thats it! I can't take it anymore......I have burned candles for the past 5 hours, used deordorizers, and he just won't stop....... I think his stomach is upset....and he keeps looking up at me with those cute little eyes like, make my upset tummy get better!

I gave him a Tums.....I hope this is ok??? any ideas????
And I've already put him outside but he keeps barking and I don't want him to wake up the neighbors.

What kind of dog & how big?

I have never seen Tums recommended, but Pepto is a common scrip for dogs.

I would think that 1-2 pepto tablets would be about right for that size dog. I will check some of my books and find out for certain.

Too much pepto will stop him up.

I feel for you...I had a 90 pound Doberman in the house that kept a bad case of gas........deadly.

Oh my, I would imagine that would be double worse!...

Swellin · 01-04-2004, 11:02 PM

Okay...the book says 1/4 to 1/2 a tablet of regular strength pepto per 20 lbs.

....and yes...that was WWWAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY worse!

OOPS, I hit post reply before I was finished... but anyways, it's embarrasing.. especially when you have company and they stay the night over and the dog sleeps next to your bed! OMG thank God the little dog was upset earlier in the night while watching TV, so I had proof!!!! Poor Thang!

I use dog farts to remove paint off of what ever needs it. I have a dauchsaund (weiner dog). ill tell ya for some reason those things are lethal!! But going with DB and Swellin, I gave my dog some pepto, cured his as s real quick.
