loose/weather Over the last couple of days,my babies have had very loose stools. They are eating/drinking and playing as usual. I think it is the hot weather we have been having, they are use to rain and colder temperatures (im in uk :rolleyes: ) I have spoke to a friend and her dogs are the same. My question is what can i give them to firm them up? I have heard canned pumpkin is good, but i cant get any! suggestions please :) |
Then only thing i know of to firm the stools is canned pumpkin and meds from the vet maybe someone else will have some suggestions |
You could try to give a little bit of keopectate. My vet gave that to Chachi once when he had diiahrea. |
Chicken and rice is a good diet for diarrhea. The chicken is easy to digest and the rice will firm up the stools. I don't know anything about weather causing a change of stools, usually it is a parasite, diet change or stress. If it continues for more than 48 hours, I think I would take a stool sample in for testing. |
I gave some immodium (liquid) to Annika when she had soft stool. |
Thanks everyone for the replies, ive given them chicken,they wont eat rice,they have never liked it,which is a shame. I will call the vets monday, but im sure its the weather, they are all fine. I will try some imodium :) |
romeo had a little loose stool too. same situation. i think they need to adjust to the warmer weather. they have sensitive systems. |
Immodium works great, depending on what is causing the loose stool. If it isn't better after administering the Immodium, I'd phone the vet. |
