Today's article is different.
Over the past several months I've noticed that I started to received quite a lot of emails asking me questions about dogs and dog care. All of these questions came from my regular readers, horse owners, and I've realized that quite a lot of horse owners also own dogs.
Most of these questions were related to one of the following conditions: itching, runny stools, colitis, weight problems and I've decided that in my future (and today's post) I will tackle some of the mentioned problems and I'll share with you what I know about them.
In today's post I would like to talk with you about colitis in dogs. Colitis affects dogs all ages, breeds and sizes and if you are a horse owner you should also know that colitis is also very common among horses too.
Anyway.
Colitis in simple terms is inflammation of the colon and quite of often is associated with diarrhea. Now, I'm not talking about occasional runny stools or anything else like that. Dogs that suffer from colitis have very severe cases of diarrhea and quite often you will notice signs of blood or mucus in it.
Now if you want to learn what causes colitis in dogs I highly recommend you to have a look at the following article: http://horsefriendly.weebly.com/1/post/2013/08/the-primary-causes-of-colitis-in-dogs.html
