Picked up our new addition to the family last sat she is an 8 week old working cocker spaniel unfortunately she has had the runs for nearly a full week now it's very yellow and runny.
The breeder gave us some puppy dried food which he was feeding her which we have now mixed 50% with our new food which is Wainwrights puppy hypo allergenic recipe, due to the runny news we are now just feeding her cooked chicken and rice on our vets advice.
She is totally ok in herself runs around playing you would never think anything was wrong apart from when she goes to the loo.
Any help or suggestions to firm her up would be appreciated thanks
Regards Russ

Ps
She came out of a shed with shredded paper as bedding and her brothers and sisters for company to a house with an 9 year old WCS and a 13 month old WCS we used a baby monitor and from the very 1st night she cried to go out at 2.30 am and 5am to go to the toilet on the grass outside, in a week we have only had 1 wee in the breakfast room,
How awesome is that ?

Hi Bex
I was hoping you would reply
Yes been the vets and she in on some antibiotics a tiny brown tablet capsule shaped one twice a day and a small round blue tablet half twice a day she has improved very slightly this morning at 5 am still on chicken and rice
Called the breeder he said probably the change of food although it was mixed very carefully 50/50 with the one we have.
Fingers crossed for the weekend
Thanks Bex
Kind regards Russell

Just an update
She has finally had a couple of almost normal motions having been on chicken and rice for a couple of days little but often.
Ayianna is so full of life and Meer has finally started to associate with her and play thank goodness.
Thank you BexVn for your help
