Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| Hi everyone Meeka has had diarrhea for 2 days now and she tested fine on her stool sample last week ,So im thinking its the food we have it eukanuba puppy and I was going to switch her to either blue buffalo or Orijen but what Im wondering if I should still switch her gradually or all at once since she already has diarrhea ? |

| I'd personally wait to switch foods if she has diarreha now. I'd wait until she firms up some first before switching foods.
Is there ANYthing new you gave her in the last 48 hours? Any new treat? More food? Did she eat something on her walk? Anything?
If nothing new was added to her diet, have you tried some pumpkin or yougurt, or partial or full bland diet to see if her tummy settles?
If you want to just try transitioning her to the new food, I would recommend making that transition slow. If her tummy is already upset, you don't want to upset it anymore by switching cold turkey. My girl has a sensitive tummy, and it took me almost 4 weeks to transition her to a new food. Maybe start with 75% of the Eukanub and mix in 25% of the new food. See how she does. If you see she firmed up a little, keep her at the mix for a couple of days before increasing the new food and decreasing the Eukanuba.

| That's what I was leaning towards I just wanted some advice. as for eating other stuff than food she eats her poo if I don't pick it up as soon as she goes and I mean I basically need to put the shovel under her but lol. as for othe stuff shell pick up a leaf or stick when we go for a walk then drop it as soon as we walk by a new stick or leaf and I have had to pull gum out of her mouth 3 times but she hasn"t swallowed any that I know of |
