Dog diarrhea starts normal and then becomes loose

Dog diarrhea that starts normal and then becomes loose may be caused by improper diet, indigestion, abdominal cold, parasite infection, and other reasons. The owner is advised to first fasting the dog for half a day or a day, and pay attention to the observation. If the dog improves, there is nothing to worry about, and the dog can be fed some probiotics to regulate the intestinal tract. If the dog does not improve or even gets worse, it is necessary to go to the pet hospital in time to check and treat the specific cause.

Improper diet

If the dog food given by the owner has gone bad, or if the dog eats cold and stimulating foods, such as ice cream, chili, etc., the stomach and intestines of the dog will be stimulated and cause diarrhea. In this case, it is recommended to fasting the dog for half a day, then let the dog drink some water, and feed some easily digestible food after the dog improves.

Indigestion

The digestive ability of a dog's stomach and intestines is limited, especially the digestive system of young dogs is not yet fully developed. If the dog eats food that is difficult to digest or eats too much at once, it may cause diarrhea. If this is the case, the owner can feed the dog with appropriate probiotics and diarrhea medication to stop diarrhea and regulate the intestinal tract.

Abdominal cold

The hair on the dog's belly is relatively sparse. If the dog sleeps on the cold floor for a long time or does not do a good job of keeping warm when the temperature suddenly drops, it is easy to cause abdominal cold and abnormal bowel movements. At the same time, the dog may also show symptoms such as sneezing and running nose. In this case, the owner should promptly take measures to keep the dog warm and consult a veterinarian for medication.

Parasite infection

If the owner has not given the dog deworming medicine for a long time and the dog's diarrhea stool contains blood, it is likely that the dog has contracted internal parasites. Because there are many parasites that can cause diarrhea in dogs, such as roundworms, tapeworms, coccidia, and hookworms, the specific deworming method is also different, it is recommended to take the dog to the pet hospital for a microscopic fecal examination to identify the type of parasite causing the diarrhea, and then use the corresponding deworming medicine.
