Dog Poop

[krakadawn]

The AKC put out some interesting articles today. Hope you've had your supper!


As disgusting as it may seem, it’s important that you examine your dog’s poop carefully if she has diarrhea and be able to give the vet as many details as possible. Armed with this knowledge, the vet will be able to tell you whether to schedule and exam or whether you can treat it at home.

Take Note of the Color of the Poop
Color can also indicate a lot about what is going on inside your dog’s gut. Chocolate brown is normal, while colors like orange, green, or gray may signify issues with such organs as liver, gall bladder, or pancreas. Black tarry stool is very serious, and may point to internal bleeding. If you see this, contact your vet as soon as possible.
Purina has also provided a handy reference—a color wheel of dog poop.

Color, shape, and consistency will all help you and your vet figure out what is wrong when your dog gets diarrhea. These factors will help your vet determine where the problem is originating along the dog’s digestive tract.

My JRT has decide that acorns are his favourite food. Bizarre. We have a 400+_ year old oak tree in our back yard. He is getting fat and his poop looks like ..... ( I'll let you guess.)
