Hi, some dogs have sensitive stomachs. If she had a new treat, this is likely the cause. Feeding her some boiled chicken and rice for her meals for about three days should clear it up. If it continues, I would take her to a vet to be check for parasites or a food intolerance. I hope she gets better!

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Diarrhea and inappetence can be observed with conditions such as colitis, gastroenteritis, dietary indiscretion, intestinal parasites, among many other possibilities. I recommend that you have Jess evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. It is concerning that she is not eating. They could potentially take radiographs to check for anything that could explain her decreased appetite and they may choose to check for parasites and to start medications for diarrhea depending on the results. Good luck! Hoping for a speedy recovery!

I would recommend that you have Chico examined by a vet. Anal fissures and anal gland issues often need appropriate antibiotics and anti-inglammatories to get under control. Yellow diarrhea could be caused by the sudden change in diet. Kibbles n Bits is very high in fat, which could cause yellow loose stools. It could also be caused by intestinal parasites or an infection. You can try a bland diet (boiled chicken breast, cook white rice, egg whites) and consider Pepto Bishop ( http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=1733 ), but if it lasts longer than 24 hours, Chico definitely needs this checked out by a vet.

Hi, and thanks for your question. These signs could be compatible with an inflammation infection of the gastrointestinal system and surrounding organs (like pancreas and liver). A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is immediately essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics and possibly further investigations (like abdominal imaging as ultrasound or radiographs) may be needed. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
