Topic Dog Boards / Health / Sickness and diarrhea
- By Lianne [gb] Date 09.03.04 19:10 UTC
My 10 week old lab has had diarrhea today he is going every half an hour but only does a bit at a time which is liquidy. He is also being sick after his meals.
Could any of the following cause this
- He had his first jab on thursday
-  he was wormed yesterday and today and is due for another tommorrow.
- Or could it be the stress of a new home , i got him 10 days ago.

Do you think i should starve him for 24 hours than give him rice and chicken and what should i do about his wormer which is due tommorrow.

This is my first dog and i'm extremly worried.

Could be the wormer...mine are usually sick after wormers..not unusual.Continue to finish the worming course.
Hope he feels better soon

I would suspect the wormer - if it is Panacur then weigh him very carefully and measure out the dose - with my Dobe pups I give very fractionally under the amount they recommend which seems to prevent the dire-rear.

If he is still like this tomorrow then consult your vet as pups can get dehydrated very quickly.  I would offer him cooled boiled water and miss out tonight's meal to give his stomach a rest

If your pup still has sickness & diarrhoea in the morning I would visit the vet, puppies can become dehydrated very quickly.

sorry only just read the last para of Christine's post above
