Acute Diarrhea Signs
Very
loose motions which may contain blood and may be accompanied by vomiting and
weakness of the hind legs.
This can be a very sudden emergency.
ACTION Withhold all food and keep the dog
warm. Offer a small volume of warm glucose solution (a tablespoonful of
glucose to a pint of water). If the dog is weak, take it to a vet
immediately
Dogs commonly develop acute diarrhea. Because we are all
concerned about our dog's welfare, we often run them in to see the
veterinarian at the first signs of diarrhea.
This is usually not necessary, and often will end up being
detrimental to the dog if antibiotics are needlessly prescribed.
Chronic diarrhea is less common, but is more serious and
will require more effort to correct.
