QuestionI have a male shipoo who just turned one in October he has had diahrea yesterday and this morning but now i notice very smelly gas that he has been passing. I also noticed that he has been scooting his behind on my carpet for about 3 days what might this be the indication of? Thanks for any assistance you can offer me.
AnswerThe diarrhea and gas could be from an indigestible he helped himself to or a bug. The scooting is likely his anal glands. I am not one to run to the vet all the time, but the vet can easily fix the scooting. As for the other, it could take a turn for the worse over the weekend or holiday. I think you should get him in before then.
