It's been ages since I have been here on this forum but I guess that is a good thing since my Biewer has been doing well.

JB was having soft stool at night (slighty formed but pudding like) so I let it go for a while. He went back to hard stools for 3 days and then back to soft at night again and it continued for a while. Called the vet and said it could be his natural aging process with changes in the GI tract so go ahead with the chicken and rice for 4-5 days. I started him on it yesterday (2 meals) with no stool at all yesterday. I thought this was a good sign since the bland diet is suppose to slow down the digestive tract with a stool being prodiced 2-3 days later. Then this morning he had slightly formed pudding like stool that was yellow. I called the vet and they said as long as he is drinking and acting normal, it could be he ate something unfamiliar but also sometimes dog stool can turn yellow on the chicken & rice diet. Also the vet tech told me her dogs sometime get a yellow stool.

I let him out again about 4 hrs ago and this time it was straight pudding like with no form whatsoever and still yellow. The vet said to give it a couple days and if it doesn't clear up bring in a sample. They also said if he starts vomiting or acting not himself bring him in. He has been his regular happy go lucky with no behavioral changes

Any/all advice is appreciated if you have experienced this with any of your yorkies or biewers. I do not know if maybe I am feeding him to much rice to chicken ratio or vice-versa. Thanks!
