My 3 1/2-year-old Australian Shepherd has had diarrhea for 2 days. Her appetite is great, but she's a bit more down than usual. She is taking 3.5ml daily of K-Bromide for seizures. She may have gotten into the trash or had some canned food added to her regular Wellness Grain Free diet. She's been given a calming supplement with melatonin, hemp seed, chamomile, and sensoril. She's up to date on heartworm/intestinal parasite prevention. What could be causing her diarrhea, and what can I do to help her?
