the runs.....

[Presley]

Hi all,
I am having a bit of a problem with Presley. Since yesterday she has had the runs.. She has Never had this problem before. I know she hasn't been getting into anything. The only thing that is different is she is getting a switch over to some food that i got from the vets but she has been on it for 2 weeks now.. I am almost wondering if i should go and put her back on the other food she was on. She seems fine otherwise.. A Bit quiet for how she normally acts but then it was quite hot here yesterday too. She also had Plenty of water and ice cubes and so on.. I know she is drinking plenty. I would like to know if anyone might have any ideas?
Should i change her appointment to get spayed???

Melissa,
Talk it over with the vet about changing the appointment. She doesn't sound dehydrated so they still may do the operation.

It does sound like it may be food related. I always go very slow when I introduce new food to the dogs. Mix the two together and gradually wean the old food away. There is meds that the vet can recommend you give Presley if this persists.

Keep us posted.
