Why does my puppy have diarrhea after vaccinations and new food?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Cockapoo | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 9 days old

I have a 2 month old cockerpoo puppy. She’s just had her 2nd jabs done yesterday. I have also just started to mix her wet food with a small handful of dry food. But since of early hours this morning she’s has sloopy diarrhoea type poo. Should I be concerned or will it go away. She’s still drinking lots of water

By 'jabs' I assume you mean vaccinations? If this is the case, I recommend to call your veterinarian and tell them what is happening. It's possible Rue is having a vaccine reaction and they may want to administer treatment just in case. They will also want to mark her file to avoid this in the future. Feed her a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken and plain boiled white rice. I hope she starts feeling better quickly and please feel free to post any additional questions.
