You can give a dog either Pepto Bismol or Kaopectate. The dosage would be 1 teaspoon every 4 to 6 hours as needed. Make sure the dog is drinking water so that it does not become dehydrated if it is vomiting with the upset stomach. They can also have a baby aspirin if they appear to be in pain.

Making your dog "fast" for a day may solve a stomach issue. Because dog's can get into trouble, the dog may have eaten something that he was not supposed to eat. You can also try to feed him yogurt. It has active enzymes that may help to settle the dog's stomach. Leave water out to prevent dehydration.

One of the best ways is to give them food that is bland. Even their dog food can be a bit too heavy if their stomach is upset. One of the best foods to give them is plain boiled white rice. If your dog won't eat plain white rice you can add very small bits of plain cooked chicken.

Don't feed the dog anything for 24 hours or if a puppy 12 hours. Give the dog ice because if the dog is vomiting or has diahrrea, he could dehydrate.

Normally you don't want to feed the dog for about 24 hours (the younger dogs you want to wait only about 12 hours) but keep the dog hydrated, leave water out or feed them ice cubes if they will eat them. You can also try a tablespoon of plain yogurt.

Here are a few things you can do to settle your dog's stomach: If this is possible, let him/her outside for brief periods of time to eat grass, this lets the dog vomit and get rid of the bad meal. Don't feed the dog for 24 hours, if he/she has diarrhea, once 24 hours are over: feed him/her bland food.
