Bella has had diarrhea for 3 days! - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I've been giving her rice, and just added chicken about an hour ago. I'm scared that something is wrong since her poop is yellow! Is this normal with eating rice??

I would say it's normal my girl had a rainbow of colors, lol, when she was getting better after having the runs.

candybaby · 06-23-2007, 05:45 PM

Is her poo getting hard??

sarahflbella · 06-23-2007, 05:50 PM

Yes, It is deffinatly getting firmer. Still soft, but firmer. It was weird, their was normal poop in the yellow,Mustard colored, poop

Oh, yes mine had that too; one time it was a really light brown and a very dark brown almost black. So, I would say it is normal

As long as the vet said he/she found nothing I wouldn't worry..

sarahflbella · 06-23-2007, 05:56 PM

Ok. Thanks! You are easing my worries. I will give it another day or so, and give the vet a call if it doesn't change.

candybaby · 06-23-2007, 05:56 PM

No problem

sarahflbella · 06-23-2007, 06:06 PM

So, she just went again and now its green! Looks like your right about the rainbow! So, this is a sign of her getting better, right??

My doggie has a sensitive stomach. He went thru a Pancreatitis episode when he was 1 1/2. Now he is almost six. I only feed him Eukanuba dry food & bland chicken & rice. He's had a few other episodes where his stomach got upset due to me giving a treat, and also back when i used to give him greenies years ago.....Everytime he's gone thru this, he's recovered fine, with holding food one day, to allow he stomach to rest...and his # 2's are always very wierd until I re-introduce his reg. dry food. When ever he eats chicken & rice, his poop always gets a little soft and mucousy. That's why I keep him on reg. dry food, and for accurate nutrition.
I've actually taken this stage of #2 to get fecal examed and it's always come out negative.

HOPE THIS HELPS!

Oh my...was it that bad? I know the major risk is dehydration..

What is ibd?

I don't give Frankie anything other then his eukanuba & rice, chicken. NO TREATS. I believe it's not necessary and it's not really healthy for any dog.
Before Frankie got sick, we didnt know any better and fed anything you can imagine....people food, peperoni sticks, cesaer dog food.. and it took him 1 1/2 until it affected his pancreas. Now he is completely healthy...and the only times he's had a bad stomach again was when he had greenies, or picked up something he wasn't suppose to eat.

yeah he had to have a plasma transfusion and everything it was bad.

Ibd is inflammatory bowel disease. None of our dogs get treats at all and we did the same as you - pupperonis,etc and it hit him at 2 years old - it was horrible and never want to go through that again

Well I waited until Monday and Bella still wasn't doing any better. Since it had been almost a week I called the vet and she gave her a perscription of Amoxitabs. It help right away. She made it through the night last night with no diarrhea and her stool is looking much better today, not runny at all. It seems like we are finally making it through this!
