Hello there! I imagine you must be quite concerned about your dog's ongoing diarrhea, and I'm here to help shed some light on what's going on and how you might manage it at home.
Diarrhea in dogs can result from various causes, like dietary changes, food intolerances, infections, parasites, or even stress. If it's been happening on and off for months, it might be due to a chronic issue, such as an allergy to a specific food ingredient or an underlying digestive condition.
In the short term, you can try to soothe your dog's tummy by switching to a bland diet—think plain boiled chicken and rice—for a few days. Also, make sure your dog stays hydrated, as diarrhea can lead to dehydration.
However, watch for signs that the situation could be serious, such as vomiting, lethargy, blood in the stool, or a fever. If you notice any of these, it's important to seek veterinary care promptly.
I'd recommend booking a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. We can delve deeper into your dog's history and symptoms, and this will help us tailor a care plan just for your furry friend. Looking forward to helping you and your pup!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
