carrots/ wet food and loose stools My 11 month old Yorkie, Reggie gets carrot chips 3x a day. No other people food. At night he gets a mix of wet and kibble. No overfeeding him. He only gets kibble during the day. Lately he has been getting a loose stool the morning after. At all other times the stool is firm and healthy. Could either the wet food and/ or the carrots be the problem. Thanx |
Carrots can definitely cause loose stools in dogs. Did you just recently start them? I'd cut back and/or totally back off the carrots to see if the poo resolves, then perhaps slowly add them back in and see how it goes. Are either of his dog foods new for him? |
Loose stool My 7 months old yorkie gets no people food or treats...just plenty of love. Recently he has developed this loose stool problem. Vet gave me a med to shoot into his mouth at meals twice a day. Vet had me put him on ID canned food mixed with white rice. Went well for a while but I see it is back again today. Its the consistency of mud and hard to get out of the grass, not very pleasant to accidently step into. Now I am on my way to Vet for more meds and ID. The breeder told me she noticed it from time to time with the father and mother of this pup. I'm wondering now if its a genetic defect or just common to the breed. |
