Topic Dog Boards / Breeding / orange poos!

Has anyone experineced a litter with orange yellow poos? Ive never had this before.

I think I would get a sample into the vets, Sam.  One of the symptoms of giardia is yellow poo.

its more like a scour (thinking of how we have had scoury lambs over the years!)  but just very bright coloured!

Scoury lambs are outwith my ken, Sam.  All I can think, if all are affected, is that is it more likely to have a bacterial cause than anything metabolic.

Have they recently been wormed?  I know Drontal can sometimes discolour pooh an orangey colour :)  glad to hear they are all ok now!
- By LucyDogs [gb] Date 17.11.08 21:17 UTC
We had orangey poos for a day or two, and slightly loose too. Now that you mention it I think it may well have been the day after a worming, so that was probably it. Didn't get as far as the vet as it was ok by the next day and the puppies were strong and healthy in themselves.

no perry they are only 3 days old :)
- By Perry Date 18.11.08 11:21 UTC
