My Yorkie is 10 weeks old. I got her a few days ago. The breeder had her on canned food which makes her stool too soft...trying to wean her onto dry food.
Last night her fur was matted with poo..so I had to give her a bath to get it all out.
Anyway, today she had bloody mucus in her stool and threw up a bit. Wouldn't eat either.
I made her an appt. for today...gave her forced liquids (water only) with a dropper and plain yogurt in the meantime.
She checked out fine at the vet...no parasites...no fever..heart and lungs good. Vet said it could be that she swalled some of the soap or bath water and it irritated her digestive tract and caused the bloody mucus in the stool.... But he wrote her out antibiotics anyway (Albon). She is fine now...though her stool is still a little runny,..the vet said it should be back to normal soon. |
