Among the potential hazards that our canine companions may encounter, a dog intestinal blockage timeline emerges as a crucial concern for pet parents. When it comes to our furry friends, their curiosity and love for exploration can sometimes lead to unexpected challenges, and getting something blocking the passage of your little one’s intestine is one of the most critical ones. Understanding how and, most importantly, when to provide support in a case of intestinal obstruction might be a case of life or death. So, let’s delve into the symptoms and prevention and explore how NHV supplements can offer valuable support.
What Can Cause Intestinal Obstruction in Dogs
Dogs are notorious for swallowing objects they shouldn’t. An intestinal blockage occurs when one of these materials obstructs the normal flow of food and waste through a dog’s digestive system. Common culprits include small toys, socks, bones, sharp objects, and even harmful foods like chocolate, grapes, or toxic nuts.
Dogs are notorious for swallowing objects they shouldn’t, which can lead to a life-threatening intestinal blockage.
Prevention is the easiest way to support your little one in these cases. Keep dangerous objects and toxic foods out of your dog’s reach, and supervise their playtime. Regular check-ups with your veterinarian can also help detect any issues early.
Otherwise, intestinal obstruction can be life-threatening, and early recognition is crucial for prompt action. If you suspect your dog has ingested a dangerous item or food, consult your veterinarian immediately. A dog intestinal blockage timeline is short, as this is a case of emergency that requires immediate professional attention.
Have your eyes out for symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite. In severe cases, your dog may also be lethargic or in shock. The sooner you seek help, the better the chances of a positive outcome.
Dog Intestinal Blockage Timeline for Treatment
Various treatment options exist for addressing an intestinal blockage in dogs. These may encompass surgical intervention to remove the obstruction. In certain cases, exceptionally skilled veterinarians may employ endoscopy to extract objects, particularly if they are non-sharp and unlikely to exacerbate issues.
In certain situations, non-obstructive foreign bodies may pass naturally, and your vet will provide guidance on the most suitable approach. While you might consider using mineral oil or certain laxative medications, as it is an emergency, it is crucial to consult with your regular vet before offering anything to your beloved furry friend.
Supportive care, coupled with vet-prescribed medications to alleviate symptoms, can also help. For post-urgent care, supplements like NHV TumFlora, NHV Yucca, and NHV Probiotic + Prebiotic can be great allies in your pet’s recovery.
These supplements not only contribute to overall gastrointestinal health but also aid in the healing journey. Specifically, probiotics & prebiotics play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy gut flora balance. This, in turn, helps with digestion and the absorption of essential nutrients for your pet’s well-being after accidentally ingesting something toxic or harmful.
If you’re looking for a dog intestinal blockage timeline, know that the best approach is always to react immediately. This can be a pet owner’s worst nightmare, but with knowledge, quick action, and NHV supplements for post-emergency support, you can increase the chances of a positive outcome. Always consult with your veterinarian for the best advice and care for your furry family member. In the meantime, our team of pet experts is a click away.

Natural Remedies for Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Dogs and Cats with Additional Diarrhea Support
Typically with inflammatory bowel disease in dogs and cats, your vet will likely recommend a change in diet (since the underlying cause may be related to food allergies).

How NHV Supplements Relieve Diarrhea and Irritable Bowel Disease in Pets
Pets may occasionally experience diarrhea or an upset tummy because maybe they ate too quickly, not enough, or something didn't quite sit right. But consistent runny poos are an alarm bell that something is going on with their digestive health.
TumFlora : contains ingredients like chamomile, licorice root, and ashwagandha, which have been used for centuries to help ease indigestion, muscle cramping and inflammation in the intestinal tract. This balanced IBD pet supplement also contains herbs like Indian gooseberry and fennel seed which may help reduce nausea and encourage healthy movement through the bowels. TumFlora also helps naturally balance intestinal gut flora and can be used alongside probiotics for dogs or cats.
Plantaeris: contains a blend of herbs that work gently and quickly to help alleviate diarrhea and loose stools. Herbs like barberry and bayberry contain soothing properties to help control diarrhea-causing bacteria and control infection. This blend is well-balanced with ingredients like myrrh, and thyme, which may help to expel gas and may promote healing and relief for overall digestive discomfort.
Holistic Support For your Pet’s GI Tract Health
When your furkiddo has IBD, inflammatory cells invade the gastrointestinal tract of your pet, which encompasses the stomach, small, and large intestine. Once inflammatory cells start taking over the GI tract, the intestinal wall may thicken over time and disrupt the absorption and movement of food. It’s unclear what may cause IBD in dogs, cats or other pets, but some potential causes are food allergies, parasites, and autoimmune conditions. A fairly common symptom of IBD in dogs and cats is diarrhea because the GI tract is damaged, so food may not be fully digested or eliminated. If we are to use a simple analogy, pets with inflammatory bowel disease can have diarrhea that may range from a soft-serve ice cream consistency to pretty much like clear water.
Having a healthy pet means the world to us at NHV. Providing your furkiddo with natural support for their digestion and gastrointestinal tract can help improve their quality of life and promote vitality!

As pet parents, we are constantly looking for ways to keep our furkiddos happy and healthy. An essential aspect of their well-being often revolves around maintaining a healthy digestive system. Just like in humans, a well-functioning gut is also vital for dogs, impacting their overall health and vitality. Our natural probiotics for dogs can help you achieve that. As a great proactive support, this supplement can be taken long-term to support your pup’s gut health and more.
What Are Prebiotics & Probiotics?
First things first, let’s understand what are the roles of prebiotics and probiotics and their importance. Prebiotics are plant fibers that feed the “good” bacteria that are already in your pup's gut. They aren’t digested and they stay in the colon to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria.
Probiotics, on the other hand, are live bacteria and yeasts that offer numerous health benefits, especially for the digestive system! Essentially, prebiotics are food for probiotics. When ingested, they can help maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria and support healthy gut function.
How NHV Prebiotics + Probiotics Helps Support Dogs
Now you understand the functions of prebiotics and probiotics individually, how can they work together to benefit your doggo? It could help in the following ways:
- Restoring Balance & Aiding Digestion:
As mentioned, both prebiotics and probiotics help balance the amount of healthy bacteria in your little one. They work synergistically to restore the natural balance of the gut microbiome, ensuring that the friendly bacteria outweigh the harmful ones. This balance is crucial for a healthy digestive tract. It may help ease digestive discomfort and promote smoother digestion.
- Supporting Immunity:
A healthy gut can be very helpful in balancing your pup’s immune system. By maintaining a balanced gut microbiome, prebiotics and probiotics contribute to a stronger immune response, helping your dog fend off disease.
- Addressing Stress & Anxiety:
Ever gotten that sting in your stomach when you’re stressed about something? Turns out, our dogs get that too. They may experience diarrhea in stressful situations like visiting a vet. That’s because stress and anxiety responses may affect the digestive flow of your little one and cause an upset stomach. Prebiotics and probiotics can play a role in supporting these issues.
