I agree with the yoghurt theory :blink:  I use the Natural Goats Yoghurt though.

Yogurt is especially good when they're on antibiotics, as it encourages the growth of good bacteria in their gut (antibiotics kill alll bacteria, not just the bad but the good as well). The only thing to make sure is that there's at least a couple of hours' gap between giving them the anitbiotics and giving them the yogurt.

Thank you all for all your input.  Ollie is so much better this morning thank goodness, it's so upsetting to see them not well.
I have noted giving the yoghurt and will be getting some later today.  I think I will make it a daily dose, as I mentioned he will try and eat anything when we are out walking either on or off lead.  He is especially keen on tissue, paper, cardboard, sheep and horses poo and even rabbit poo to name but a few!  Hopefully the yoghurt will help him fight off any 'nasties', you need eyes in the back of your head when he's outside!
