Health my new dog

Question
Hi,

I adopted a dog from a rescue center.  She is a lab mix 1-2 years old.  Ever since I got her she has had diarhea.  I feed her Iams and missing link.  I have had her over a month now.  I give her toys and she seems very happy.  Do you think there is something really wrong with her?  She doesn't eat people food and I would have thought that her system would have adjusted by now.  

Can I give her anything?  What do you think

Thank you for your time,

Lollie & Oakley

Hi Lollie,

Have you had your dog checked for worms?  If not, be sure to do so, as it can cause these symptoms.   If you have, then try feeding your dog a little cottage cheese with her food.  They like it and it tends to be easy on the stomach.  If diarrhea continues, I would take her to the vet.  This is not normal and should not persist.

Thank you,
Becky
