Answer 2

Every Dog is different just like you and I. Sometimes it can be out of fear or anxiousness, sometimes, its just their individual body. I can hold myself all night long but I can't hold myself for 8-9 hours during the day. There are several pet services available that will come and walk your dog during the day. I run home at lunch time and let my terriers out. They are 8 & 9 and just seem reassured when I walk in the door. They know the routine. They go pee for me and I pet them and talk to them a little and give them a treat and they watch me leave. They are okay with that. You have to realize that even though you are asleep during the night, you are still there. A dog has the mentality of a child. 8-9 hours is a very long, lonely day. A 2 year old dog is still a young animal. That's hard on them. Other people take their dogs once or twice a week to a doggie daycare. Then they play and it's fun. It's something for them to look forward to just like your day's off. They know when its the end of the week. Your dog may even be developing kidney or bladder problems. Most likely its anxiety.

Answer 3

It sounds like she may have worms. Do you let your dog outside at all, has she been de-wormed recently? The dog is still young and you may want to upgrade her diet (under guidance from a vet). Have you recently changed her food? Dogs get very stressed out. Have you moved recently, or have you brought another pet home? I would talk to the vet to rule out worms or illness and take it from there. Don't feed you dog anything different until you consult a vet, and make sure the dog has fresh water all the time. (Also check the dog waste for blood, go to the vet immediately if you find it)

Answer 4

The first thing you want to do is STOP FEEDING HER!!! You can leave her water bowl down, but you want to let her gut rest for the rest of today. That will cure a surprising # of diarrhea cases, especially if they were caused by eating all kinds of Thanksgiving food her stomach wasn't used to. If she starts acting sick, or still has diarrhea tomorrow, then she needs to go to the vet. If she stops having diarrhea, then start giving her small amts chicken and rice tomorrow (broil the chicken or use a can of white meat chicken- the goal is to make it low fat). Give her a little every few hours. As long as she keep it down and the diarrhea doesn't return, gradually increase the amt you give her, then transition her back to her regular food. Just remember that taking her to the vet sooner rather than later is usually cheaper-- if she keeps getting sicker and you wait to take her in, you could be faced with a very big bill. Good Luck!!

Answer 5

PLEASE call your vet ASAP. Your vet can determine the cause and treat it. Your dog is in danger of becoming dehydrated. You don't know the cause of the diarrhea it could be something simple but it could be serious let the vet decide.

Answer 6

Agree with ESPERANZA; call your vet before it becomes a serious health problem (if it isn't already).

If it's a simple and non-serious problem, try giving the dog some cheese. Cheese naturally firms stools in humans and I imagine may do the same in some animals.

Answer 7

You need to take it to the vet this could be the canine version of aids or any number of criticaal illnesses also try feeding her plain yogurt it may help.

Answer 8

could be the chlorine in the the water,,see the vet in a few days if nothing changes...

Answer 9

cook up some hamburger and rice and feed that to the dog for a day....see if it helps...no other dog food or table scraps or treats. If it doesn't stop then take the dog to the vet...good luck

Answer 10

Needs to see the vet! ASAP!!
