well guess what? Back Again! I dont understand what keeps causing this? does anyone have any experience with this problem or have heard of anything to possibly cure it. I mean i dont mind taking her to the doctor for the medicine but she just had this maybe a month ago, i cant keep spending close to $100 per bottle of medicine everytime this happeneds as it seems as though it may happen alot!
I hope it doesnt but geez...my kinda fun isnt shoving a pill down her throat everyday and shes gagging on my finger and cleaning wall to wall poop out of her kennel every night!
any suggestions would be very helpful
P.S. she has an appt. tomorrow(monday). I couldnt take her on saturday cause i had to work and my boyfriend is gone.
thanks again!
First, why would you want to shove a pill down a dog's throat with your fingers? Wrap the pill in some partially melted cheese, or hide it inside some peanut butter. The dog will never know there's a pill inside the cheese or peanut butter. It disappears fast, and will maintain your fingers in good working order.

In reviewing your previous posts your Vet prescribed a "pill", and some "stuff" to sprinkle on the food. Unclear whether the Vet has done a blood panel work up, tested several fecal samples, or just prescribed an anti-inflamatory, or antibiotic, or ??? This chronic diarrhea could be caused by anything from malabsorption, food allergy, parasites, intestinal overgrowths of bacteria, or a metabolic disorder. If you want to get to the root cause then the Vet will need to run diagnostics, and especially examine several fecal samples for parasites such as giardia which are sometimes difficult to find. If s/he is at a loss to explain the cause, then ask for a referral to a specialist. You'll get hit with some hefty expenses up front, but it's better than spending $100 a month for the rest of the dog's life.
