mini rat terrier has white feces

Question

Answer
Hi Laurie!

The change in the color of the feces could signal a problem in the gastrointestinal tract. The normal brown color of feces is usually due to the addition of bile into the intestinal tract as part of the digestive process. Pale or gray feces could be a sign of a bile duct obstruction. The color of the feces may also be affected when there is a problem with the pancreas. In either case the problem is serious and warrants a veterinary examination and probably blood test.

If you don't have the money for a vet visit, maybe you can talk to your vet about it and make monthly payments, for example maybe 10 dollars a month. A vet visit is needed, so please find a way to work things out with your vet!

I hope this is helpful and please keep me updated! Sending wagging tails your way! ...Nikki...
