Question
My 12 week old boxer has just started with diarrhea last night,hes eating ( james wellbeloved ) and drinking fine and his injections and worming is up to date,seems fine in himself just alittle worried about him.do i need to see a vet?

Answer
Diarrhea is a symptom of a problem-- poisoning, illness, stomach problems, something---

Feed him baby food sweet potatoes on his food and give it until a next poop- if he still has diarrhea- take him to your vet before he dehydrates. Clear (no flavors) baby Pediolyte (generic is okay) will help hydrate him.
