Leia ate a hot cheeto with chamoy and her poop came out like this she had diarreah for 2 days with a lot of gas then her poop got normal but it had this in it. Does she have parasites or just got sick from that hot cheeto with chamoy?

She most likely got sick from the hot Cheeto. I would try feeding her plain boiled boneless, skinless chicken and white rice to help settle her tummy then slowly integrate her regular food again. If the poop continues to look like that I would have your vet take a look at her.

It's probably the hot cheeto causing the diarrhea and color. I can give you a home remedy for Vader to see if that helps. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the diarrhea continues on the bland diet, he starts vomiting food, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!

Hello, sorry to hear about Vader. Diarrhea, flatulence, even vomiting and a decreased appetite are common in dogs whom have dietary indiscretions (getting into something they shouldn't have). Often, we recommend feeding a bland diet of plain white rice, skinless and boneless boiled chicken, and even low fat cottage cheese for 3-5 days. If his diarrhea does not improve in that time, if he develops vomiting, lethargy, or does not want to eat then he may need to see his veterinarian for further care. Other causes of this that are less likely include infections and ingestion of foreign material such as string or cloth. Finally any liver disease, kidney disease, or pancreatitis can cause this and will typically not improve on its own. If you think Vader is becoming more ill, then have him seen immediately. Hope this helps and best of luck.
