My dog has had raspberry jam-like diarrhea, which seems to be a sign of HGE. She has a history of reacting poorly to pharmaceutical drugs, including antibiotics and flea medicine, which have triggered vomiting and other issues. Her stomach is grumbling, and she recently passed strawberry jam-like bowels. Is there a non-pharmaceutical treatment option or a way to entice her to drink fluids, as she hasn't been drinking water?
