Sick puppy, help! (boston terrier)?
No home remedies – take him and a stool sample to the vet right away, before he dies. Puppies go fast, and there is nothing you want to ‘try’ on him – you want to have him diagnosed accurately and treated for whatever his problem is – there’s not much to him, so there’s not that much between a puppy and no puppy. Go NOW.
To start with, I agree with the people above, you should not take a chance with a puppy, especially a small breed like a bt, there isn’t much of them……take him to a vet! But if you’re in a situation where you absolutely can’t there here is some advice: Firstly keep a close eye on him, if he shows any signs of dehyration or lethargy take him immediately to the vet. (ie Check his gums, they should be a nice pinky color, not pale white, he should come to you not just lay there, and he should eat his food). If you fail to do this he may die 🙁 Next, if he appears healthy and happy and all you notice is the occasional weird stool then there a few things to try: It could be a food allergy, stop feeding him between meals, no snacks off your plates, scraps, left-overs, you said it only occasionally he has the weird poop, so it’s probably not his main food. See if this fixes things. Failing that you could try an elemination diet, change him to nothing but boiled rice and chicken for a week
