If your dog has been vomiting, offering a bland diet can help soothe their stomach and aid recovery. Here are some safe, gentle food options:
- Plain boiled chicken (no skin or bones)
- White rice
- Plain, mashed pumpkin (not spiced or sweetened)
- Boiled potatoes (without skin or seasoning)
- Cottage cheese (in small amounts)
These foods are generally gentle on a dog’s stomach and can provide essential nutrients without irritating their digestive system further. It’s important to introduce them slowly and watch for any adverse reactions or continued vomiting.
