It turned out it was the kibble, and since switching to raw when he was 20 weeks old he can eat all sorts of treats with no problems. How about bully sticks, most dogs can tolerate them.
I hope some others can pipe in and give you some good ideas.

Yes, been wanting to switch his diet but have not been able to stabilize his bowel movements which is when the vet said what does he chew on? um oops...no rawhide!! So I am hoping this will stabilize him enough to switch over to a new diet plan. Poor little guy went every two hours last night...no kibble but had rawhide. My horse is like this as well...must be the owner. | |

| I do not think he can get enough off a real bone to effect his tummy.....there is hardly anything on them....and what is on them is hard to get off I think it would be a perfect thing for your pup to chew on

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.

| I give the kids big marrow bones.
I boil them first, take all the marrow out, cool off and watch them go crazy.
With teething pups, I freeze the bone first.
I never had a tummy problem.
