Question

about every two weeks my dog will get the runs iit will last 24 hrs then she is normal we had stool samples done but came back normal. I'm wondering if she has calitus. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | spayed | 3 months and 15 days old | 13 lbs

She could have colitis but that is pretty unlikely in a puppy. I suggest you just put her on a probiotic for a couple months to see if it helps. You can use any probiotic made for dogs but I prefer Fortiflora as it has had the most testing. Do not use human probiotics. You can buy it on Amazon - no prescription needed. One packet on her food daily. ( https://www.allivet.com/p-1130-purina-pro-plan-veterinary-diets-fortiflora-dog-supplement-box-of-30.aspx?SearchTerm=fortiflora+Auto )
