My dog's stool is clay-colored and pink. Should I see a vet now?

Question

1.5 year old female corgi. Was seen this week for possible UTI, tests came back negative and ultrasound showed no issue with kidneys or bladder. Carprofen was given for anti-inflammatory just in case. Today, she passed clay colored stool and one that was mildly pink. Is this of concern? Will she be okay to wait until Monday to be seen by a vet? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 1 year and 5 months old | 19 lbs

Please stop giving the carprofen in case that is causing the change in the stool. If Tria is otherwise normal you should be fine to wait until Monday. If she should have additional pink stool or she stops eating or starts vomiting then I would be concerned and take her in sooner. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Tria.
