Why does my new 8-week-old German Shepherd puppy have yellow poop?

Question

I have a new German Shepherd 8 week old puppy, & he's been having yellow poop since the first day I got him, what's wrong? Pet's info: Dog | Siberian Husky | Male | neutered | 1 year and 7 months old

Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

Congrats on your new puppy! This yellow poop can be a sign of intestinal worms, which are very common in puppies. He will need a deworming treatment if he's not up to date on his treatments, and I recommend giving him Panacur. He will need one every two weeks until he is 12 weeks old. Then one every month until he is six months of age, and after that he should be dewormed once every three months.
