Water poo - any idea???

Posted : 7/4/2006 12:53:33 PM

Oh my....
Have just got home from work and have been informed by son that when he took Vito out today, he did a funny poo.
He squatted to do a normal one, a bit came out(normal) and the rest was like CLEAR water.Not a lot, but some.

How old is he? Have you made any changes to his food or given any new treats? If he's not a puppy and there's been no changes to the diet, I'd fast him for 12 hours (lots of water, but no food) and see if it continues. You could give boiled chicken and rice if it continues tomorrow, but if it goes on for a couple of days, I'd get him to the vet to rule out worms or a intestinal virus.

Cakana made some great points. I had this happen with a breath mint style bone treat that I was giving Rocky my chow-lab mix. After a couple days it went away. If you dont see it getting better shortly I would add some rice in with his food.

Sounds like a parasite to me... or soemthing that seriously upset his stomach.

Thanks all - poo is ok now!
Must have been something dodgy he picked up and ate in the park maybe - these labs eat everything.[

Since "labs will eat anything" you MUST install excellent leave it and drop it commands in this boy.
