    I think my black female lab might be sick?? I got her on Tuesday, she was born on December 21. On Wednesday she started having diarrhea and I took it as a side effect of rehoming and new surroundings. I noticed how she was sleeping a lot as well but Google said that puppies tend to sleep for 15-20 hrs a day so I wasn’t too worried. I also saw that she had ticks so I took them all out. On Friday I got another lab (male) puppy so that she will have a friend. And I noticed the difference in their behavior. She seemed more playful then she was before and better after we got him, but now that about a week past she still has runny diarrhea. On Monday she seemed much better in the morning/day time and her poop I even started having a shape bit around 10 I took her out to poop and it was runny and after 30 min she had a second runny diarrhea and after and 1.3 hr she had another diarrhea. Both puppies need their second set of shots which they are getting on Tuesday. She is not throwing up, she eats well and drinks water she also plays with my other puppy so I don’t know what to even think anymore.

    I would advise a visit to the vet as soon as possible. Puppies can go downhill very quickly. I'd be concerned about her having come from an unsuitable environment if she has ticks. It could be giardia, coccidosis etc.
    Please remember not to vaccinate her until she is back to 100% health.
