Dog cannot eat for 24 hours..

Whats the best way to get through the next 16 hours of my lovely beagle/lab mix Bruiser not being allowed to eat (He has a parasite called Coxcidia (spelling may be off there) )

Ahhh..he's sitting by where his dish is and barking a lot..(I moved the dish from his site...)

1 word........Water

didn't they give you a bland can food to feed him? like a spoonful every few hours

i dont no what that is but leave him alone everythings fine!

I have never heard of not feeding as part of treatment for Coccidia. Our dog had it when we adopted her, and I'm pretty sure they treated it with sulfa drugs. I know that you need to disinfect everything - but I've never heard of withholding food.

I had this happen to my dog once-------the dr gave him stuff call the vet and ask if it is ok for the dog to have a small bite of food say every three hoours---just a bite to curve the hunger

Why can your dog not eat for 24 hours? My dog had the misfortune of contacting coccidia a few months back and she was not restricted from eating. What reason does your vet give?

Keep him busy with walks and play time. It will be hard.
