Fckn dogs...first off, Frank has had diarrhea for a week...possibly the change in food...the breeder sent us home with a container of "Purina puppy chow," which is what she said the puppies have been eating...but when I went to buy more to keep mixing with the new puppy food...turns out, it was just Purina Dog Chow...when I asked her about it..."Oh...I was out of their puppy food, so I just sent you with some of that since they've eaten it occasionally." I've had him on rice and boiled chicken...mixed with a bit of canned pumpkin...trying to get things worked out...early this morning..."hershey squirts."
He's been on the cancellation list at the local vet...no luck...so I called one of the vets in a neighboring town...they were able to work him in for a quick exam and stool sample. Before we left, he pooped the best turd he's pooped since we got him...but I still took him to the vet for a checkup. Of course, they found nothing wrong...no worms or other parasites, no unexpected bacteria...so I got to shell out $165...just to meet his new vet.
Anyway, things are getting back to normal <knock on wood> in that department..
After we got home, I took him into the back yard to play ball...after being cooped up in the truck all afternoon...I bent over to pick up the ball...threw my fckn back out. 🤬
