Question
My scottish terrier has runny stools and there is some mucous in it.  She is very listless and is not eating. Any ideas?  

               Thank you, Laura

Answer
Hi Laura, Please see the vet and bring in a stool sample.  It may be a virus that is going around or even a parasite.  The vet has a number of things that can help.
Also, use the following recipes / Bland diet for the next 4 -6 days.
