Need help on food choice... Hello everyone, Kody is 21 weeks old. His breeder started him on Purina, which I quickly changed to RC. Since being on this forum I've learned a lot about everything including food. So I gradually switched him to Wellness Super 5 Mix around 6 weeks go. I noticed a change in stool at that time but nothing significant. I switched back to RC for about a week and then introduced Wellness again. He eats Wellness with no problem. Kody was neutered on April 22. Since then his stool has been runny and loose. Moreso now over the last couple of days it has gotten a little worse. Not to the point where he can't hold it though. Could this be just something they may go away or do you think I need to switch from the Wellness? Also I gave him a little banana today. If I need to switch, what food would you suggest. I currently feed him twice a day. I live near a Petsmart and Petco. Thank you. |
I don't think the food has anything to do with this. If he were mine, I'd make a vet appointment especially since it's been a week now. I would call today for an appointment. |
I have seen this once before post-neuter. He has to see the vet. They may want to do some testing, trying a round of Metronidazole or the like, or have you hold him off food for 24 hours. It's been way too long and he did just have surgery, so he has to be seen. |
Thanks for the replies ... I stool has been looser than normal since neuter. Not runny the whole time (my mistake in initial post). Only runny since late yesterday - diarrhea mode now. No other problems at all. Eats and drinks well. I called the vet this morning and was told to try boiled chicken and rice - he isn't scheduled to be checked for another three days post surgery. They suggested the chick n rice or I could bring him in for an early evaluation? |
Also any idea of a good product for "diarrhea" carpet stains? |
