Vega has had the runs for about a week now. The pumpkin mixed with her food helped a bit. Usually the first defication of the day but the rest vary from complete watery to the consistancy of soft serve. I switched her to rice and ground beef for he past two days and that has gotten rid of the wateryfeces but still has a very soft feces. We dropped off a stool sample for testing this morning and I am a bit worried.
Wish Vega some luck ::UPDATE::

Kiah had that too after she drank some standing water, they didn't find anything in her poo but gave her some medicine for a week and she was just fine. I am sure Vega will be fine but it is very scary to think something might be wrong with them.

Keeping fingers and paws crossed for Vega and hope you find out what's causing it. Sophie has had that problem from time to time lately, but I think it's because she keeps getting into the cat's food. She is small enough to go into the little "cat house" and grab a bite or two if the cat's not around and it's making me nuts. So I'm waiting anxiously to hear what you find out. Hope it's nothing and that you get it under control quickly.

So Dr. B just called and said no parasites, no ghiardia. eE said that most likely it's a Bacterial infection and is giving me some meds for that. To feed Vega her regular food and add pumpkin or cottage cheese to it to firm it back up. So hopefully this will get her better 
YAY!

Hopefully the meds will clear it all up! Glad they now have a better idea of what may be causing his loose stool.

I hope the metro cures Vega. Charlie just finished up taking the metro last night. He's always had funny poo in my opinion. Typically he'll start out solid and the last 1/2 will be loose. The metro seems to help, but I did notice yesterday that he had a loose stool one time. Sometimes I think he forces himself to poop. A typical day is 2 to 3 poops for our dogs.
