 Loose stool
I have a 5 month old Yorkie (Chica) who has begun to have loose stool / diahrrea. She eats well, drinks lots of water, is playful as a puppy should be, etc.. She shows no sign of discomfort at all. Ever since we've had her, she's had soft stool more frequently than normal. But, just recently it's gotten worse. I've had the stool tested a few weeks ago and everything was OK and now I may have it tested again. I've tried the rice / hamburg diet and still no improvement. I stopped giving her treats and still no improvement. She started teething at the same time she started having loose stool. Could this be related? The vet says no. She stays alone at home from 8-4 (Monday - Friday). Could it be stress related from being alone? If that was the case, the problem would have started from the start, right? Is there anyone here that can share their thoughts of what they think this might be. Of course, I'm actually going to the vet tomorrow, but I'm always open to new suggestions. Thanks. Andr |
