We haven't changed his food, but he has been getting different treats as well as some people food (green beans, and chicken). I know thats bad, but with his antibiotics he had to have some food on his stomach. At first I thought it was the antibiotics, and then I thought he was being finicky b/c now he knows what good food tastes like. Then the pooping happened and I knew it was more than that.
Sometimes antibiotics can cause inflammation of the bowles or stomach and this can account for the loose stool, and lack of appetite. I'm hoping it is something as simple as that. Or perhaps a parasite or something.
The thing that scares me the most is that my sister's basset almost died from something similar to a appendisitus(sp?). He had eaten rotten food and got a huge infection. He was having the same symptoms as Seamus and then one day my sister got home and he couldn't even move. It was a huge ordeal and $10,000 later he is better, but how scary!
I'll let everyone know when I do. You can learn a lot from these things. It's great!
