my friend got this goldie and he's like 2 months old..his name's halu and he'd diarrhea for almost 5 times and its all wet and brownish..is it normal??

Possible causes

Stress new environment
Change of food from what he was used to
Food too rich Ie adult food

If there is no vomiting and the pup is happy and content i would think it would settle on its own, make sure the poo has no blood and dog doesnt develop vomiting.
They have very sensitive stomachs so any food change will disrupt them. You might need to fast the pup for twelve hours to give the gut time to rest then start back on small, bland foods for a few days then slowly introduce puppy food, Dont give them milk either cause they can be lactose intolorant

Hi Gell///get a fecal done ASAP.puppies are very prone to parasites to wait could mean disaster..better safe than sorry

Those are all good possibilites and getting the fecal for parasites is definitely something that needs to be done.

If there aren't any parasites, your friend needs to take a good close look at what Halu's been eating.

Lactose intolerance? Is he getting milk? He seems pretty young.

yeah possibly from different brand of dog food or stress. Does the diarrhea smell really bad? Does the diarrhea appear really glossy?

 

[gell914]

yes it does smell bad and it looks like chocolate milkshake (watery)..its kinda like a porridge..i mean..its wet and its like a goo..

 

[chell78]

take him to see a vet and take a sample of the diarrhea with you, if you are really worried, I would

 

[candy722]

Yup you should take him to the vet. They might give him some antibiotics.

Thanx again guys , yes my friend called the vet and they give him some tablets..the diarrhea stoppe for awhile then after 2 days it started again..but i guess he's fine now..!!
