If Lulu is having trouble defecating properly, or is having runny stool that sticks to her bottom it is best to schedule a vet visit. Parasites, GI upset, constipation, allergies, muscular or neurologic issues may all cause runny stools or difficulty defecating. If you can, bring in a sample of Lulu's stool with you to the vet to help check for the most common GI causes.
