Re: 7 week old rottweiler puppy with diarrhoea
You should NOT be starving a pup of this age, for any length of time!
Her diet has been changed 3 or 4 times in as many days. She is not able to cope with this change yet. The best thing for firming up poos is mashed potato, nothing else for the day, just mash, then start introducing small amounts of the food your going to stick to. I totally agree with dh.dti about the breeder not having a clue. I don't use any kind of commercial wormer, but in this case i think a trip to the vets is called for, to have a thorough check over. You cant take any chances with one so young ![]()

I know all you want to do is make your baby well again but you must keep things simple as all you will end up doing is making it worse if you give bits of this and bits of that , so nothing else to eat now till tomorrow i would still pop her along to the vets often its difficult to assertain the cause of the runs espescialy as you hav,nt had her long and can not tell the vet much of her rescent health history, all you know is she has the runs and she has mucus in her poo , our vet was of the opinion that you starve if she is being sick but feed through the runs , but seriously your not doing her any good by swaping her food so often , take it from someone who did it not that long ago lol keep us posted.
