I did a search but nothing came up in regards to after boarding diarreah. I picked up Bugzy from the kennel yesterday after being boarded overnight. Since we have brought him home he has been pooping with some blood in it. Could this be from being stressed over being boarded or do you think it's a medical issue? He acts and eats fine. He was fine and healthy when we dropped him off. He eats Wellness by the way and I provided his regular food for him while he was there. I'm wondering if it's something that will clear up on it's own or if I should take him in. Thanks

Before we had our boxer we had a rat terrier and he used to get nervous when he went anywhere but home. He got so nervous that he gave himself a parasite. The vet said that this could happen when the dog gets nervous??? I don't know if this is the same, but maybe the stay was tramatic for Bugzy. I would call the vet and see what they say? The vet also told me to be carefull with my kids cause the parasite could be passed to them! I hope this helps!

It has probably been caused by the stress of being left at a kennel. Try adding a tablespoon or so of pumpkin(canned plain) to his food and if is stools don't firm back up in a day or so a trip to the vet will be in order.
