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.
yup i will agree with that we was given hills i/d...lol

HI Your rottie looks so cute on the photo! Have you tried dry food for her? I had my boy from the breeders and he had the runs, but as soon as I put him on dry food his toileting went back to normal and had no problem since! Never thought about scrambled egg hehe!

I wouldn't have her vaccinated while she has the runs, but that is only my opinion, the vet may say other wise.

when my partner and i picked her up she had a huge round belly and she had very bad wind. she was being fed on pedigree puppy food only. i changed her diet straight away because she had the runs from day one, i know i should have changed it over time. she has only been to the toilet for number 2's once today so far, it was yellow and runny but now like yesturdays. could the scrambled egg make her poo yellow?
That is the bit that is worrying me does sound as though she may have worms it doesnt sound (unfortunately) as if she has had the best start in life if I was you I would forget the vaccinations for the time being and get her there with a stool sample and have a worm count done on her dont have her vaccinated and bring more problems on yourself as vaccines are going to knock her for six!!

Re: 7 week old rottweiler puppy with diarrhoea
i will definately get a stool sample from her, before we go to the vets. i have had a look on the internet about worms and to me it sounds like she may have whipworm, because of the bloody faeces and the mucus, diarrhoea and loss of weight. what do you think?

Re: 7 week old rottweiler puppy with diarrhoea
it certainly doesnt sound as if anything has been done properly with this litter so I doubt that the worming was up to much either, hopefully the vets will give her a clean bill of health but go with an open mind. good luck to you both keep us informed of her progress.
