No dog owner likes to see their pup struggling with diarrhea. It’s unpleasant, concerning, and often leaves you wondering what caused it—especially if it seems tied to something your dog ate. When it becomes a pattern, it’s natural to start questioning their diet.
The truth is, diarrhea in dogs is fairly common and can be triggered by several things, including:
-
Food intolerance or allergies
-
Spoiled or contaminated food
-
Eating something they shouldn’t
-
Sudden changes in diet
Mild cases often pass on their own. But when diarrhea becomes persistent or severe, it’s time to call the vet—and take a closer look at what your dog is eating.
A Gentle, Bland Approach
Like people, dogs tend to do best with bland, easily digested foods when their stomachs are upset. That’s why most vets recommend a gentle, simplified diet during recovery.
Foods commonly used to support sensitive stomachs include:
-
Plain white rice
-
Boiled, skinless chicken
-
Sweet potatoes and cooked white potatoes
-
Plain canned pumpkin
-
Cooked oats or carrots
It makes sense that a food designed for sensitive stomachs would include similar ingredients—and be made using a process that doesn’t lead to bloating or digestive stress. That’s exactly the thinking behind Nextrition cold-pressed dog food.
Formulated to Be Easy on the Gut
Nextrition was developed specifically for dogs with sensitive stomachs in mind. Each recipe is carefully crafted to support digestion and reduce the risk of upset, without sacrificing nutrition or flavor.
We use ingredients like gently cooked meats, nutrient-dense vegetables, and easy-to-digest grains, all chosen for their role in supporting gut health. Then, instead of using high heat (which can damage nutrients and flavor), we cook at low temperatures before cold-pressing everything into soft, bite-sized pieces.
The result? A food that breaks down easily in the stomach, delivers more nutritional value per bite, and doesn’t swell like traditional kibble.
Why That Matters
For a dog with chronic or sensitive digestion, the last thing you want is a heavy food that’s hard to break down. Nextrition’s cold-pressed process avoids the bloating and digestive burden often caused by conventional kibble—making it a strong choice for dogs dealing with diarrhea or frequent stomach upset.
It’s also packed with naturally retained vitamins and minerals, which helps keep your dog’s energy up while their gut settles.
Talk to Your Vet, Then Try a Switch
If your dog is experiencing ongoing diarrhea or digestive discomfort, it’s always a good idea to check in with your vet. But once you’ve ruled out more serious causes, switching to a more easily digested food can make a world of difference.
We believe Nextrition is one of the best options out there for dogs with sensitive stomachs—and many vets agree. It’s nutritionally complete, gentle on digestion, and made with real ingredients your dog will love.
A happy gut is a healthy dog. And that starts with the right food.
