sick pup?

[Kristl]

i think my puppy might be sick. he's had diarrhea today and when he goes out he squats 3 times with out anything coming out. is this just a normal puppy thing, or more serious?

#1 thing to do is contact your vet. Since your puppy has not had all his shots yet, it could be very serious, perhaps parvo. Your vet can test and tell you for sure. Here's hoping it's something minor.

well, he seems to be feeling better...the icky is more solid now. if it happens again i will call the vet...he's got an appt. next friday to get his shots. i think it may have been that due to the fact that he's being house trained, he gets a treat when he does it outside and they're kinda rich. i didn't give him any treats yesterday and fed him less and it seems to have worked. hopefully that's all it was!
