Puppy diarrhea can be really messy. It can also be quite worrying because, after all, they are only young and they don't have an awful lot of body reserves. I'm going to go through the causes of puppy diarrhea as well as how you can treat diarrhea in a puppy it at home and when you should worry and seek help from your veterinarian

At the very beginning, it is really important to distinguish between a puppy who has diarrhea but is otherwise well and healthy, compared to a puppy who is also unwell. Ask yourself these questions:
Are they also vomiting?
Are they continuing to gain weight?
Is your puppy still playing?
Have they stopped eating or drinking?
Are they more quiet than normal?
Not only are the potential causes of diarrhea different, the speed at which you need to seek professional help and treatment is also different. In fact, if your puppy is unwell then you should stop reading now and call your vet to schedule an appointment today.

For a puppy who is otherwise happy and eating, there are three main common causes of diarrhea.
1 They’ve eaten something funny
2 Intestinal parasites (especially worms)
3 Diet intolerance

You can treat these at home quite successfully. More persistent diarrhea, or if your puppy is also unwell, can be caused by many other diseases which will need your veterinarian to successfully diagnose and treat.
