Question
I have a 5month old american staffshire. Yesterday I came home and he went in his crate. But more than that is was very watery llike. I cleaned up everything and took him for a walk... he went again and it was blasts of water and mucus kinda stuff.  he did not eat anything last night after that and this morning I took him out but it was still slimy like ...he is still running around and being himself ...no signs he is uncomfortable.  he plays and runs around.  and he ate all his food as well and is drinking water.  So I don't know what is causing this...can you help me?

Answer
Javier -

Please have your pet evaluated by a veterinarian.  I am unable to diagnose his problems without examining him.  The runny nose may be indicative of an allergy, but let your veterinarian determine is causing him to be ill.
