Thats what I hate about typing posts you cant see expression of the person sending it

All smiles here and thanks to everyone who responded to this (messy) question. ) ) I just wondered if any other dogs did it. I've never seen one that's quite like Kozanna. Walking poo I've seen, but she doesn't even seem to notice she's doing it most of the time.

I've had Kozanna almost eight weeks, not six. This is a picture of her from earlier today curled up in a snuggle bed by me at the computer desk. She's wearing her little sock shirt attached to her diaper to keep the diaper on. She gets along fine with that and doesn't pay any attention to it. I think she likes wearing a shirt.

Ladyj,

It's just a thought here but I wonder if she has no muscle function in her colon and that's why the poo just comes out. Maybe if she doesn't do better it's something you could talk to your vet about. I can't remember the medical term for it, her muscles can't contract properly. I know I've said it before but bless you for adopting a mill dog. She's a sweety!!!

Yes, I have thought the same thing, that she may not be functioning just like she should. I have talked to my vet and we are going to watch her. The vet did take a look at her when she was spayed, but that was only on the outside, of course. She doesn't seem to have good muscle tone in her rear end, so there may be something like that going on. She is a sweetie and I'm going to hang in there with her and just love her and see how it goes!
