Bailey is almost 17 weeks old. I got him at 10 weeks...he hadn't had any vet care. He's since had his first two rounds of puppy shots, including lepto, and has had two rounds of Strongid. He's currently on Interceptor and Frontline. He is some kind of mix...everyone (including my vet) thinks he has a black lab body, and a Beagle head & ears. He started paying a lot of attention to his bottom last night, and he didn't eat as much as usual today. He is still drinking, though, and is happy to eat treats. I tempted him to eat some food by mixing a little baby food into it, and he lapped it right up. My biggest concern is that he is licking his bottom like crazy, which is unusual for him. And there is a metallic smell coming from his bottom. He isn't having diarrhea, either. I'm calling the vet tomorrow morning to see when they can see him, but I wanted to see if anyone had any ideas... I've read a bunch of posts, and am worried that the metallic smell might indicate Parvo...
