Sarge has had coccinea twice now. It gave him severe diahrea and we placed him on meds twice now. Soon we are back to hard stools. However the last time he had this tested, two days ago, we could not get a proper bowel to have them test.
So tomorrow i am taking in a stool to the vet and having tests ran. I want parvo and coccinea checked and worms of course.
Now he is on a healthy diet and is doing great in gaining weight and not tired or depressed, active, eats well, drinks well, plays well, sleeps well, and all that. But one thing I have noticed is he has dry skin and itches a lot. I asked the vet about his skin once and he checked the food for me and suggested a new diet which he has been on for three weeks now and his skin seems drier.
Can this be caused by a virus or something?
What tests would you have run on a stool sample to make sure your puppy was in tip top shape?
Thanks for your help.
