Dog Diarrhea Medicine
When Tim gets diarrhea it’s both annoying and humorous at the same time- there’s just something inherently funny about seeing a fully grown German Shepard squatting in the backyard with a look of pure humiliation on her face. Of course, I never make fun of her and I certainly don’t ridicule her, but seeing her brought to her knees so easily is kind of funny.
There are a lot of different dog diarrhea medicines available these days. You can find several online, as well as many at your local pet store. I don’t have a lot of experience with all of them, though I do have experience with a select few.
Veterinarian Prescribed Dog Diarrhea Medication
It is unlikely that your dogs diarrhea would get this severe as to require medication from a veterinarian, but there is always the possibility. Tim has had to go on meds once in the last two years, and although it wasn’t a painful experience, she certainly didn’t make giving her the pills easy.
Medication that is prescribed by your veterinarian is heavy-duty, one size fits all stuff. It is designed to fix whatever is wrong, and to do it fast. The only problems is that it requires a visit to the veterinarian to get, and that it is a bit more expensive than you would expect (the last tube that I bought cost me nearly $40).
Off the Shelf Dog Diarrhea Medicine
This is a tricky subject, as there are a lot of different products out there to choose from. I tried my hand at a few which didn’t work for me, though I had heard from others that they did work. One product, called RunniPoo, did wind up working (surprisingly, given its name). I followed the directions, gave Tim her doses, and it cleared up after the third dose (as it advertised).
RunniPoo is an all-natural supplement, containing a mixture of various herbs and minerals. How it helps the dogs digestive system get over the diarrhea I don’t know- the website offers an in depth explanation that I’ve never bothered to read. I’m assuming that it calms down the digestive tract somehow, and in the case of Tim, it always clears up her diarrhea.
Ask around and see what products other local dog owners are using. You’ll get a better idea of what works and what doesn’t work, and it will be based on personal experience, not hype or heresay. I would avoid talking to the pet store, though, as they’re probably just going to try and sell you on something.
