Good morning my rottweiler who is 5mths old. Just pooped and it was white/yellowish color and had a long white gooie string in it. Was normal poop after that. Should I be worried. She is acting normal. It won't let me add pics

This is likely not a big ordeal especially since she is acting Norma and the poop has been normal since but I would contact your vet to see if you could have her fecal checked to ensure she doesn't have any intestinal parasites that could be causing what sounds like mucus in her poop. If this continues then I would urge you to have her examined to find the cause. I hope this helps.
