One of my puppies had some stomach problem yesterday and I check his tummy and it was warm. I resorted to force feed him some moringa powder and then sugar.
Today, I'm supposed to take him to the vet but he seemed to be very energetic as usual and also ate when I gave them breakfast. Maybe I should be careful what to feed them.

Yeah, they've said sugar helps sometimes on sick dogs. I just don't get the scientific connection but many used to say that. I'm glad your dog is well.

It helps with dogs with appetite problems but I'm glad things are okay with him now @simplfred . That's just easy speculation @kepweng you don't get diabetes with just one table spoon of sugar per day.

when any of our dogs vomit or get nauseous, we put half a teaspoon of refined sugar in their water and they drink it. sugared water may be like dextrose to them.

Hi LK. Yes, we should be careful at all times, most especially when they are young.

Hello @mlgen1037 Yeah they're young, maybe I've just added too much rice on their meal.

@Letranknight2015 yes for sure and maybe you have to observe them since they are still puppies.

did you forcefully give your puppy with sugar, and not mixed it with water?

Hello @ridingbet I water them with syringe but I added moringa first before sugar.

It's good your puppy is okay now. It can be worrisome sometimes to have a sick puppy.

Hello @Shavkat I don't think I poisoned my dog but somehow the sugar brought his appetite back.

It seems to be their normal habit or something @just4him

You should be careful in feeding them. I guess.

Puppies tend to have sensitive stomachs because they're still young. Eventually they will develop better immune system. Glad to know your puppy is well now.

Hello @almostoveryou You're right and now I'm more careful on what I feed them, probably lesser amounts for the moment.

i am amazed you were able to identify that your puppy has a stomach problem. How were you able to do so?

He wasn't eating his porridge @sw8sincere so i may have to be careful with feeding him.

@Letranknight2015 I told him, but he doesn't believe anything. I will search the video and show him.

He probably had a tummy ache. The food you gave him might have been too heavy for his stomach.
Glad that he's okay now.

Hello @Starmaiden true, it might have been very heavy on his stomach. This time I won't give him too much.

Maybe he found food on the floor and ate it is why his stomach was acting up.
