Section: Follow Up
Allow your pet to rest and regain its strength.
Feces should be picked up and kept from other dogs, because most likely they contain the virus.
Once vomiting has stopped, encourage water intake. Offer your pet a small amount of water and a bland diet.
Your veterinarian may recommend a prescription diet.
If your pet is not eating or drinking, is continually tired, vomiting and/or still has diarrhea, call your veterinarian. It takes a few days for stools to normalize.
