Diarrhea

TeamGenji Oct 21, 2007 01:18 PM

Hi Dr. Tobin,

I posted about my 5 year old German Shepherd that has had a bad diarrhea last Tuesday.

http://forums.doghobbyist.com/view.php?id=163778,163778

Although he doesn't have watery and gushing diarrha anymore, his stools are still soft like pudding. (Sorry about the discription!) It's yellowish, more like whiteish. Also he has gas. I still hear his stomach making noises every now and then.

Should I still keep giving him Podophylum 30c 3 times a day?

As I mentioned in my last post, he always keeps a very close eye on me and follows me everywhere in the house and IS so jealous of my new puppy. Every times the puppy comes out of his crate and/or when I approach the crate to talk to the puppy, he (the German Shepherd) runs toward us and starts barking at the puppy through the crate.

He has great appetite. No vomit. No blood in his stools. Sleeps good at night. We just came back inside from playing with balls in the yard.

Thank you.

Just an update about his stool.

He just went to bathroom for this morning.

His stool is still soft and whiteish yellow, but it's a bit firmer than yesterdat morning.

Try giving Lycopodium 30c once a day. If needed, also give a probiotic twice a day.
