We had this with bacon a few weeks ago. Vet said to stop any medicine we were giving him for a few days, feed him white rice for a few days, and that we could give him pepto-bismol up to 3x a day. I would suggest not doing to pepto unless your vet suggest it. We didnt really give it to him...

I know we were planning on getting another one, but we got a surprise instead, we found out were going to have a baby! :D So for now it would probably be a good idea to wait awhile..... well see if that happens :whistle:
