Pet's info: Dog | Toy Poodle | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 2 months old | 5.1 lbs

Help! Today she pooped very soft stool but not completely watery, but it kinda stains yellow and covered with yellow liquid. i dont really know how to describe it .. her appetite has decreased but Im not surprise cause she sometimes eats lots sometimes lesser. She is still active, running and didnt show any sign of discomfort other than the poop thing. Is it food problem I haven notice? Also she lives inside. And has monthly deworming except for this month.

Hi! It's possible that Snowie is experiencing some digestive discomfort, acidic stomach or bacterial disturbance. You'll want to keep monitoring her for another event. If the diarrhea does not subside, you'll want to offer her a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice. Your local Veterinarian can provide you with a probiotic supplement to help increase the good bacteria in the stomach and support digestive health.
