Hi All -

Abby has been having loose stools and mildly firm stools for about a week and a half. I took a stool sample in to the vet and they did not find anything.

She has been licking her legs the past week and a half, but we have also started going for short walks in the neighborhood. Could be from the trees - lots of Palo Verdes which have huge allergies to.

I know she is teething and this is sometimes common. Max went into get fixed earlier this week, which I know was stressful for her too. He did not want to play for a day and a half - just lots of snuggles. So this may contribute to the issue.

Abby's eating habits have not changed and she has lots of energy. She was calmer this week with Max being fixed. She knew he was not in the mood to play and just played by herself and with me.

I am currently feeding Abby and Max Wellness Small Breed Just for Puppy.

Any suggestions? I am not sure if it is just the teething or if she has issues with her food. She has been on Wellness for about 12 weeks. Max's stools are firm and regular.
