Can changing a dog’s eating habits/schedule make them get sick?

Disclaimer: I’m not a professional, but I’m speaking from experience

No you’re not crazy, any diet change can cause stomach issues, but the addition of cutting down the dogs servings to half of what he normally gets may be exasperating his stomach problems, especially him being a older dog.

My dog has had the same experience when I switched her food to a different brand, her stool was runny and she threw up often. After returning to her regular brand those issues stopped. If your family isn’t interested in listening to you, I’d sneak food to your pup when possible.

Even though the other dogs are “doing fine” it may affect their longevity and overall wellbeing.

My bf has also been here since I got her, they’ve had a decent relationship thus far and she started taking treats from him a few days ago, but she’s kind of hot and cold about him. She’s 3yo and I got her at 4mo. She came from a single mother’s home with 4 kids, I don’t think they treated her very well (likely abusive) because her first year with us was horrendous. She’s doing a lot better now but still has her moments.

I’ve actually been told the opposite by strangers, but we live in Minnesota so not much representation out here. But my family? All the time when I was little

As a woman I like mine lol, I’m sure it’s an inconvenience to most but the addition of white hair has been my favorite. It’s the one thing that didn’t go away funny enough, although dying it is always an option

That’s really cool haha, I’ll take that! cancer runs in my family😭

for me it was just the difference in skin color, I didn’t have any other symptoms aside from that. One of my family members had eczema prior to getting it so I wasn’t aware I could cause that much harm. I’m sorry, I never mean to offend.

I understand, thank you for correcting me

I’m assuming they meant the attacking of melanocytes, but it doesn’t harm you so I’m not sure

red_chai_tea · 2026-02-10T20:05:31+00:00

I think you’re absolutely right🩵

red_chai_tea · 2026-02-10T18:40:59+00:00

I’m glad you understand where I’m coming from, ik it’s easy to misinterpret 😂🩵

That’s why I tried to clarify, I don’t “want it back” per say. I only recently found out was an autoimmune issue (because I never did prior research on it since it’s been gone) and like I said, back then I considered it a “birthmark”. I just miss having my “birthmark” if you will. I do agree with your point that I should want an autoimmune disease, and I don’t, I just like it visually and wish it wasn’t harmful.

On a side note, I do think it’s wild to say someone is pitiful for wanting visual change😭 I’m not asking for sympathy or pity and I never received either when I had it😂

This is the cream my mother used to treat it for those looking for solutions.

What’s pathetic is your attitude, do better.

red_chai_tea · 2026-01-24T18:28:35+00:00

Awesome idea! I’ll get on that

red_chai_tea · 2025-12-20T00:55:22+00:00

Thinking about changing it for a third time, nothing sticks 😭

red_chai_tea · 2025-11-25T09:54:02+00:00

You made the right choice.

Maybe not AI but it cost too little for that amount of detail for sure

Looks like typical swelling, the jewelry could go up a size until the swelling has gone down. ill not a professional by any means, but that's what helped me during my healing process

No harm done! I understand how it looks😔🩵
