Infrequent yellow, jelly-like poop - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hansch99 · 05-16-2008, 07:25 AM

Twice since we got Buster three weeks ago, he has had a normal poop that finished with about a tablespoon of a clear, yellow, jelly-like substance that smelled stronger than normal.

He hasn't had any vomitting or diahrea, and the yellow substance instances were about a week apart. He did, however, have giardia when we got him, but he is more than a week and a half past his medicine therapy and since hasn't shown any of the symptoms we associated with his infection (such as loss of appetite and loose stools).

Is it normal for a Yorkie to pass a good amount this substance every once in a while? Could it me the anal glands emptying?

Any input is greatly appreciated.

He may have eaten something that has upset his GI track. Try feeding him some Rice and Boiled Chicken (or Boiled Hamburger Meat) - You need to give his system a rest. He may also need some probiotics (plain low fat organic yogurt) to replensih the good bacteria in his system, since he had a parasite and was on antib's

P.S. That is not his anal glads and it's not normal for this to happen often.
