Diarrhea in a Bichon can be caused by indigestion, internal parasites, acute gastroenteritis, canine parvovirus, or coronavirus. First, adjust the dog’s diet to light, easily digestible food, and clean the food bowl to prevent bacteria from spoiled food harming the gut. Next, add an appropriate amount of probiotics to the food to regulate digestion, then give pet antidiarrheal medication and an anti-inflammatory containing amoxicillin clavulanate. Finally, if the dog does not improve after medication, take it to a vet to check for parasites or viruses and use targeted treatment.
