Dogs experience persistent diarrhea and vomiting after May

“Last week my 10 y/o dog had a severe bout of HGE. He spent 3 (very expensive) days in the hospital and even received 3 bags of plasma. I was able to bring him home 5 days ago, and although he seems to have made a complete recovery otherwise, the diarrhea has not let up. It’s no longer bloody, just “normal” diarrhea but excessive. He’s still on several medications, which I’ve been giving exactly as prescribed, as well as prescription food. He’s energetic, happy, has a great appetite, and seems to”

“Hi everyone, My dog was hospitalized with severe diarrhea caused by pancreatitis for a week and was released 5 days ago. He has since had a checkup with his primary care (who is out of office today so I can’t call her to ask this question), who said he’s healing fine. My concern is with his anus- it is still puffy and red from the frequent pooping. This also means he is occasionally leaking some poop in his sleep- not like he was when he had severe diarrhea, just a bit, but I was hoping that wou”

“Hi everyone, my dog started having diarrhoea a few days ago. At first it was just liquid, a few drops every couple of hours in the morning and then nothing in the afternoon or evening. It was like that that on Friday and saturday. Saturday evening he pooped again and it was a soft consistency, shapeless but I could pick it up. The same on sunday (1 poop on sunday). Then again the same on monday (twice) and then no poop at all until yesterday around 10pm. It was solid, shaped and I could easily p”

“My baby was born on May 1st, so just over 4 months. I feed her chicken and rice purina pro plan but switching her to Royal Canine Pug breed puppy food tomorrow. She is eating and drinking just fine, she threw up in our bed late last night, and about 2 hours ago. The puke 3 hours ago was definitely undigested dog food, late last night wasn’t solid, kinda runny. Poop is solid and not runny. She has been eating her treats and we played for a while today and she got her normal zoomies also. Gums are”

“Hi everyone! I am posting about my three year old Labrador. Yesterday, he had some diarrhea with some bright red blood. He was straining to poop. I withheld food, and he had three more bouts of diarrhea before not pooping for about 12 hours. He did poop again twice today, both small amounts of formed poop, but again, had some bright red blood in both. He is otherwise acting completely normally, and has an appetite, has been playing, and is doing everything he normally does. I can’t stress enough”

“My husband and I have a beautiful pittbull mix, and he’ll be a year old at the end of the month! Just when we were starting to reach an equilibrium all together, he began having nightly diarrhea and it has been on and off for about 2 months now. We are completely exhausted, all 3 of us. My husband and I take turns getting up in the night, because without fail, our boy will cry to go out at least once, if not upwards of 3 times, about 1-2 hours apart. Every time he immediately has diarrhea, so I”

“Dog Chihuahua 5 Diarrhea for a week from getting into a bag of chicken nuggets. Tested for pancreatitis and negative. Slightly tired, started refusing food today. Drinking water fine. Took my five year-old Chihuahua to the vet yesterday for a week of diarrhea and they prescribed the entero. We’ve been using it for 24 hours and she’s had worse diarrhoea every two hours since. submitted by /u/RedditBrowserToronto [link] [comments]”

“Vets, please help. What could be causing this? My 6-year-old, 11.5-pound dog suddenly developed bloody diarrhea. We took her to our regular vet, where they tested a stool sample and said they did not find any parasites. They sent us home with a probiotic and prescription food. The next day, she was still having bloody diarrhea and had started vomiting, including vomiting after drinking water, so we took her to the ER. Her bloodwork showed: ALT of 1,311 U/L, which is extremely elevated ALP of 487”

“Hey, I’m hoping someone can help me out. I have a little over a 1 year old staffy (spayed, Michigan) that has had on and off again bouts of diarrhea and vomiting for the last two months. This most recent stretch has been for at least 6 days with a break in between for a 2 days (not consecutive) of fasting. She has only vomited once during the stretch. This is the second time a stretch like this has happened and both times paid 600 dollars for a vet to tell me everything is fine. She is a very ha”

“My dog has been having diarrhea everyday for the last week (since last tuesday i think). She is a mix between many things but i think its mainly black lab. At first I thought it was because of cosequin because every once in a while ( a couple times a year probably) she gets sick from cosequin which i give her every day and i just back off of that for a few days and she gets better and then i return to normal dose and shes good. This time i backed off a bit and went to half her dose and she kept”

“hey guys! My eight year-old Australian Shepherd has been having loose stools for about a week. We brought him to his vet yesterday. He was tested for Giardia and other infections. He does not have any. They gave us the Purina pro gastroenteric food and a probiotic. Problem is my husband took the dog to the vet not me so the instructions are very vague. We only have one can of the Purina pro gastroenteric food left and he's still having loose stools, even though they are better than they were”

“around 2 weeks ago, my 5 year old dog started vomiting a few hours after eating and having bloody diarrhea (to the point she was leaking blood from her bum). my mother checked her bum and concluded that she didn't have anything, thus telling me she was alright. since then, she's been having on and off episodes of bloody diahrrea and vomit – she'll start shaking really hard, and so i understand that she really needs to go and i go and take a walk with her. but sometimes i'm not pr”

“Four days ago while I was out of town, my dog began vomiting multiple times a day. Husband took her to the vet on Monday. They ran bloodwork and performed an X-ray and found nothing abnormal. Her liver and kidney functions are good. They also gave her an injection of some anti nausea medicine and sent us home with prescription anti nausea tablets to give her daily. Since starting the oral medicine, she seems more comfortable and hasn’t vomited. But her demeanor is still off, and she’s acting let”

“My 12 year old Japanese Spitz is experiencing diarrhoea (4 times) and vomitting (3 times) in the last 7 hours. It's 4am here (Australia) and it's unlike him to need to toilet overnight at all. The last lot of vomit was just saliva. He otherwise seems fine. No lethargy, no apparent abdominal pain. Do I wait 4 hours for my vet to open or get him to emergency now? submitted by /u/only_login_available [link] [comments]”

“I have 3 dogs. All 3 are mixed breed pits ages 1.5, 5 and 7. The issue started with the youngest having almost watery diarrhea. I immediately put him on a bland diet. A few days later his stool was starting to firm up but then my 5yo started showing the same symptoms. I put all the dogs on a bland diet (boiled chicken, rice and pumpkin) even tho the oldest dog was still having firm stools. I did this for a few days and everything seemed to be going alright. Then my oldest dog had an explosive ac”

“Neutered male cocker x springer spaniel mix, 7 years old, 36lbs (BCS 5 at his last visit), located in Ontario, Canada. Just looking for second opinions. My dog has been having diarrhea for nearly two weeks, fluctuating between complete liquid and soft serve consistency. Eating, drinking, energy levels all fine. After the first two days of this, we used my vet’s 24/7 chat function to talk to a RVT. They suggested probiotics (we purchased FortiFlora) and said to continue to monitor at home for ano”

“My dog has been seriously ill for about 17 days. It started with fever, severe lethargy, loss of appetite, eye/nasal discharge and later diarrhea. She has now developed recurrent bloody diarrhea, sometimes with quite a lot of bright red blood. She is barely eating but still drinks water on her own. She also had rapid breathing, although it has improved somewhat after IV fluids and treatment. Her gums are still pink, her fever has come down, and today her eyes/look seemed much more normal and ale”

“My 12-year-old German Shepherd has been dealing with recurring diarrhea for months, and we’re at a loss for what to try next. So far: Full bloodwork is normal Pancreatic testing is normal Multiple parasite tests are negative Abdominal ultrasound didn’t show anything that would explain the diarrhea Colon biopsy came back unremarkable He is already on a prescription gastrointestinal diet He will sometimes have completely normal, solid poop for days or even weeks, and then suddenly have another fla”

“My dog has had off and on gastrointestinal upset for 2 months now. Originally it was a sudden severe bout of diarrhea that I took her to the vet for and she got metronidazole and probiotics. Then 3 weeks later she had the same severe diarrhea return and we went back to the vet and got a prescription food. She lost her appetite after I tried to get her to eat the prescription food and now she requires hand feeding. She is still having loose stools intermittently between good, solid stools. As of”

“My dog has always had a sensitive stomach, but he began experiencing consistent diarrhea and vomiting back in late May/early June. June 8th, his bloodwork results showed his albumin level was 1.2. We ruled out parasites with a fecal sample. We also submitted a urine sample, and the vet said it seems like his liver is okay, so she suspected IBD and told me about PLE. For a week, we fed him only white rice and chicken broth. He took Cerenia and another med meant to calm his gut down, though I can’”
