Last night my girl woke us up in the middle of the night for a potty break. My mom went down with her and came up saying Kiley had diarrhea. This morning my dad went down and he told me in a note on my door that she had diarrhea all over her crate. They left some on the back deck for me to look at (i always inspect runny poo for blood, objects, etc because they refuse to do it) and i noticed that there were two discolored spots (darker than the rest… maybe blood?) It was also very watery and grainy if that makes sense. She’s had diarrhea once more about half an hour ago (no discoloration, watery, grainy) and has peed three times (large puddles) since about 7 this morning.
She was spayed on Friday morning (past Friday), her incision looks normal and healing well. She was more rambunctious the past few days and i took her for two short walks yesterday to expel energy.
We did change her food to Canidae and she picked old food out of new and ate the new. No new treats.
I am calling the vet after class to ask them but was wondering is anyone had any suggestions as to what it could be while i wait for class to get out. The change of food? Maybe she was too energetic yesterday?
She does not have access to plants (and does not eat grass or flowers in yard.) She does not have access to any objects she can swallow or chew pieces off of. She does not get human food any more. She has not been around other dogs OR dog poop.
Don’t know if this relates but she’s had this before – the vet told us it was either mushrooms or her food (it went away after we mowed lawn and changed food, so i don’t know which it was.)
We fed her rice and chicken and the vet had us give her Kaopectate then, the only problem with feeding her the rice is she’ll stop eating the kibble again. We just got her to START eating it lol.
She didn’t eat anything while at the vets last Friday morning to Saturday morning. Her stool had been fine up until last night – nice and formed and no blood.
She is drinking water and i try to feed her small amounts but she only seems to want to eat at night and ignores any other food i put down during the day usually (i posted a question about that as well.)
