Well because this other vet that I just went to was also closed, I will be taking in a poop sample on Monday at my regular vet. I will also ask about heart worms and see how much it would be for a blood test. As for now his poop is normal. Thank you for your advice. I didn't know that there were preventatives I could use, now that I know I will make sure to get some after he tests for negative.
