Hello there all

Sorry if this is a 'messy' subject.

I have a 2 year old female border collie and this week she has started having very loose poo. In addition this poo has a kind of slimyness to it. Sometimes the poo is sort of 'formed' however it is still slimy. (The slime is a beigy white kind of colour)

We have not changed her food, she eats pedigree and Butchers tinned food with pedigree mixer biscuits.

Any ideas please - sort of worried about her.

Thanks in advance for any help.

This should be in the dog health section
It sounds almost certainly like colitis, a little natural yogurt daily may help or you could try this
vetscriptions.co.uk: PRO-KOLIN 30: (Protexin) probiotic, kaolin & pectin for dogs and cats, 30mls

Sorry if in wrong section - I saw the 'health' bit and thought it was the right place

I am sure one of the moderators will move it if it is wrong.

Thanks for your reply!

I've informed the mods

I would get you dog to the vet for a check, she may have just picked something up, but if it is colitis the earlier you get it the better.

sounds like colitis
get him vet checked
you may need to change his diet
but don,t do it till you seen vet
my oldie gets it plus IBS
change of diet has worked well

My rough suffers with colitis from time to time so I had to look at changing his diet after he had had all the tests done by the vet. He is now on Burns duck/brown rice ( dry ) I add a scoop of protect to his evening meal this works a bit like yogurt.
