Like humans, dogs can have an upset stomach. If your dog is experiencing higher than normal digestive problems, however, such as persistent loose stools and excessive gas, these may be indications of a sensitive stomach. For dogs with a sensitive stomach, several guidelines can be followed to keep their digestive system in check. Always check with a veterinarian to make sure your dog's indigestion is not an indication of a larger problem.

Instructions
Feed your dog a consistent diet. Any abrupt change in treats or food can cause problems for a dog with a sensitive stomach.
Avoid letting your dog eat human food, table scraps, garbage or any other object that is not suitable for a dog's diet.
Divide your dog's feeding times into smaller meals spread throughout the day. If your dog eats too quickly, air could be ingested and complicate the digestive system, which can cause an upset stomach.
Feed your dog high quality dog food. A veterinarian can recommend an effective brand, although these can include natural food brands or brands designed by veterinarians.
