Shorkie's question about Morning Glory Poisoning

Question

My dog ate a leaf from a morning glory plant. It wasn’t the seed or flower. About a day later he has had diarrhea for a complete day. He shows no other symptoms. Should I take him to the vet or can I feed him boiled chicken and rice to help bind his poop?

Accepted Answer

If he is not vomiting and is acting energetic and normal otherwise, you can try a bland diet of boiled white chicken and boiled white rice for 2-3 days and see if that helps.  If the diarrhea resolves, you should be fine.  If it does not, it would be best to have him seen by your veterinarian at that point.  

I hope that all goes well for him!
