My bitch Cassie had her puppies 3 weeks ago and since the day prior to whelping she has had diarrhoea. I initially put her diarrhoea down to her impending labour, everything relaxing and getting ready for the birth...
Also wondered if the hot weather was to blame?......
To be safe I took her to the vet and he said she seems well and gave us Milbemax incase it was a worming problem, and also Pro-Kolin+ (prebiotic) to settle her tummy.... 3 times daily since....but she still has diarrhoea. The diarrhoea isn't particularly foul smelling, no blood or mucus and it literally washes away to nothing with a bucket of water.
Any ideas what could be causing this? She does seem very well, no change in her appearance or nature and has taken to motherhood amazingly....but should I be worried. Is it possible she could have damaged her bowel whilst whelping.....the pups were born about one and a half hours apart except for the last puppy who came as a surprise about 3 hours later! Just a thought.
