Hi Brenda,
My boy Jethro has been diagnosed with IBD, it’s different in dogs than in humans. Basically, the dogs intestines attack protein as it enters and by the time it reaches the stomach it’s already bad.
So the old chicken and rice doesn’t help.
My boy ended up having his intestines biopsied to confirm this. He has been put on prednisone to help the inflammation and also he had to eat a prescription diet, currently Hills Z/D which has Hydrolyzed Chicken Liver, which basically means that the protein has been removed.
No matter what regular food you use, it’s likely going to cause flare ups. I would consult your vet and perhaps the prescription diet will help.
I hope this is helpful.
Until you can speak to a Vet, I would feed your dog mashed potato and carrots. It’s the only thing that settles Jethro down after a flare up.
