My German Shepherd has EPI. Are their stools mustard colored?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | German Shepherd | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 3 months old | 72 lbs

If my german shepherd had epi would the stools be a mustard color. My friend said a dog with epi would have mustard color stools. Thanks

Many times dogs with epi will have grayish stools that appear to have a sheen. That being said, the stool color cannot be used to diagnose disease conditions. If you are worried about epi in Kia, a blood test can give the accurate results. Thank you for using Pet Coach!
