My dog has diarrhea, dandruff, and a rumbling stomach. What to do?

Question

Music’s stomach keeps growling. Recently my husband and I separated and she is with me. She licks like normal. I don’t know if this is diarrhea or what. She has been using the restroom. Stool is kinda runny. The other thing is she has white dandruff everywhere. I am not sure what is going on with her. What do I do.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Music. It sounds like she is stressed by the recent changes in your home. This can cause loose stool or diarrhea. If the stool does not go back to normal soon she will need to see her veterinarian. She may require a medication and possibly a probiotic to help. As for the skin, start by bathing her with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner such as an oatmeal or fatty acid based formula. This should help with the dandruff. I hope this information helps!
