My seven month old 65lb pitbull has had liquid diarrhea for about a day. He’s still very active playful and eating and drinking normally and when he goes out to use the bathroom the diarrhea is in small amounts should I be concerned?

I’m sorry Hades is sick. Typically I will fast the next meal ( but don’t withhold water). Then start feeding small amounts of a bland diet such as boiled chicken and rice. If t starts to slow down and firm up then keep going. If not, you may need to see your veterinarian. Best of luck and I hope she improves soon! Thank you for using Pet Coach.
