I woke up this morning and my Yorkie, Huey, usually is up and about. Well I went in my second bedroom and he was laying on the bed. He looked to have had an accident, maybe diarrhea. So I put him in the bath tub and he had some poop hanging off his butt area. I washed it all off and noticed that his butthole was larger and inflamed. He also had like an area above his butt that looked like it does when someone gets a skinned knee, red and looks like it hurts. I took him out of the bath and usually he runs around and acts like a crazy dog. But he just went and laid in his bed. His butthole is still larger than it usually is. I am wondering if this is due to the feces that was sticking out when I gave him a bath or why. I called another dog owner and she told me to give him a little baby tylenol and to watch him.
I am a bit worried about this. He has never had this before and will be 3 soon. Any one experience this or can any one give me any advice?
