Hi I have a 9 week old pup with runny poo.I no it is all the change of water new home etc but have spent alnight reading the forum and wondered if it would be ok to give my puppy some actimel probiotic yogurt drink as its the only yogurt i have untill tomorrow.Shes been wormed this week and had her injections so im sure its nothing else as shes fine in herself

I have a 10 week old dane puppy who also suffered this problem.  I gave her chicken and rice/pasta and I also boiled all her drinking water for a couple of days too.  She was soon back to normal.  I actually use actimel yoghurt drink as part of her diet as she doesn't like normal bio yoghurt and my breeders suggested trying this instead.

Thanks for that ..I gave her some actimel last night and again this morning with some patsa and she is a little better.I have also cut down on her food as i think i was feeding her to much.Still feeding 4 meals but smaller portions.

It was 4 a day for mine at that age :)

No, four meals a day till 12 weeks, then three meals a day till 6 months. 2 meals a day either till 12 months or (as is most usual) for the rest of the dog's life. :)

i was told of the breeder to feed 4 meals a day for the first 4 or 5 months as the puppy is a toy breed and i think i fed my other 4 times a day untill about 5 months.I think i was just giving to big of a portion.It is so easy to give them more than they need especially as she only ways about 2lb
