Re: 7 week old rottweiler puppy with diarrhoea

Have you tried feeding her the same food for any period of time longer than a day?

Re: 7 week old rottweiler puppy with diarrhoea

What are you planning to feed her long term? How long as she had diahorrea / how long have you had her? Have you been to the vets about it?

Sorry about all the questions but don't want to give advise without knowing all the relevant facts.

Re: 7 week old rottweiler puppy with diarrhoea

i got her on friday and has had the runs since then, but i dont know before that. the man i bought her from said she was fine and healthy and she looks ok. she only had one poo yesturday that was runny and only one poo today. i will be ringing the vets today to get her booked in for a check up and vaccination schedule. she is still very lively and bright as a button. she sleeps well, eats well and goes to the toilet regularly.

If it were me I'd get her on that and keep her on that now. I wouldn't be messing about feeding her things like egg, yoghurt or chicken and rice just decide what you want to feed and stick with it.

There are many reasons she could have diahorrea but messing the poor pup about feeding different foods everyday is doing her no favours!

Is diahorrea the only symptom she has?

Re: 7 week old rottweiler puppy with diarrhoea

I would get her started on it asap and keep her on it at least for a few weeks.

Her stomach won't settle unless she is kept on the same food. The vets will be able to tell you what the problem is if they've got anything about them. Ring them and ask if you can take a sample if you are concerned it's something more than an unsettled tummy!

When you go to the vets whatever you do don't let them palm you off with a prescription diet such as hills i/d.
