runny poo

Hi folks

It appears our sasha has a bout of the runs....:S

No sudden changes in food the only diffrence is the flavour we got her duck and rice instead of turkey and rice.
thats the only thing thats changed she has not eaten anything that she should not have as far as i`m aware

other than that she seams her normal happy self nothing else has changed just runny poo is there something i can give her to help her ?

its a nightmare trying to pick up a runny poo lol

i think every dog on here has had the runs lately some have been fine some have been poorly. keep an eye out and make sure she has plenty of water.

Just of the phone to her vet he said give her some cooked plain rice and either cooked chicken or scrambled egg no dog food today or tomorrow

he said if that dose not clear her up within a day or say he can give her a "paste" not sure what its called but i can only assume its the opposite of a laxitive

She allways has access to water fresh bowl every morning appart from the runs shes just her wee self bounding about playing with the kids

dogs always eat better than us when theyre not well our last dog a GSD had the famous GSD tummy and was always getting poorly and so more often than not pete was on beans on toast while the dog got fish, chicken, rice and pasta ah the sacrifices we make. hope she better soon

It could be the change of food that's done it - a lot of dogs have intolerances to certain meats. Mine can't eat birds of any kind, so chicken, turkey, duck etc are out! Try giving some rice ormashed potatoe for 24 hours & then if poss go back to the old food & see if that sorts it out.

If you want to finish off the new one, just add a small amount to the food every other day.

It appears were back to runny poo's

after two days of rice and chicken they were back to normal i also got her turkey and rice james well belloved what she was on before i took her out for her walk this morning and she had the runs still as hyper and playfull as ever

i dont know if they have changed anything in the food or if its just her tummy adjusting to being back on dog food and not rice and chicken if it dose no clear up by thursday im going to nip her to the vet

Rocky had a bout of being sick recently. We gave him a couple of teaspoons of plain natural yogurt each day and this seems to have cleared it up. It maybe worth a try if all else fails.

It was most likely the changes in food. Even a different flavor could have different ingredients. It should pass in a few days. If you are going to change food it should be done slowly and gradually over about a weeks time.

Hope she feels better soon

The dog's tummy might be sensitive to the change of food. Try feeding the dog with pumpkin to stop the runny poo. This is part of my american staffordshire terrier care.
