Dog with yellow loose stool and energetic

A dog with a yellow loose stool and energetic mood may be caused by improper diet, abdominal cold, irritable bowel syndrome, parasite infection, acute gastroenteritis, ulcerative colitis, and infection with parvovirus. First of all, if it is caused by improper diet and abdominal cold, the symptoms can be improved by adjusting the diet and taking warming measures. Owners generally do not need to be too worried. Secondly, if the dog has other uncomfortable symptoms, such as abdominal pain and vomiting, it is recommended to take the dog to the hospital for treatment.

Improper diet

If a dog eats food contaminated with bacteria, it will stimulate the gastrointestinal mucosa, causing diarrhea. Drinking more warm water can accelerate the rate of metabolism in the body, promote food metabolism, and reduce abdominal damage.

Abdominal cold

If the abdomen is stimulated by cold wind, it will accelerate the peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract, causing an increase in bowel movements and stool color turning yellow. This generally does not lead to abnormal mental state and requires protective measures against cold.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Usually caused by gastrointestinal dysmotility and intestinal microecological imbalance, it can lead to inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms such as diarrhea and abdominal bloating. The stool color is usually yellow and loose. Treatment requires following the doctor's advice to take diarrhea medication and antibiotics.

Parasite infection

Mainly caused by intestinal parasite infection, it can cause damage to the digestive system, leading to symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, and weight loss. If not improved in time, the number of intestinal parasites may increase, causing diarrhea. Treatment requires following the doctor's advice to take deworming medication.

Acute gastroenteritis

Usually caused by bacterial and viral infections, it can cause electrolyte disorders, leading to abnormal bowel movements, fever, and abdominal discomfort. The stool color is usually yellow and can be treated with antibiotics and antiviral medication as prescribed.

Ulcerative colitis

If a dog already has ulcerative colitis, it will present with chronic diarrhea, mucopurulent stools, and the stool color will be yellow or red. Without timely improvement, the frequency of bowel movements may increase, and treatment requires following the doctor's advice to take antibiotics and diarrhea medication.

Parvovirus infection

A viral disease, it occurs when a dog is infected with parvovirus. Symptoms include vomiting and diarrhea, and the secretions and lungs become discolored with a foul smell. Treatment requires following the doctor's advice for serum administration and oral antiviral medication.

During treatment, it is necessary to take the dog to a regular hospital for regular check-ups to monitor the recovery progress.
