    Runny stool with mucous and blood
    I got a new puppy and immediately took her to the vet. She already had 2 sets of shots, so he did a fecal for worms. He found nothing but just in case gave us meds for Coccidia and vinbantel for Roundworms, Hookworms, and Tapeworms. My puppy hasn't had a normal bowel moment since I brought her home. Today it is more runny and has mucous and some drops of blood. The slime looks like worms but not tapeworms. The poop is getting more watery and is yellowish-green. She doesn't go back until the end of this week. I don't see her drinking any more than usual. She doesn't eat as much, but some of this is from the stress. She is scared of everything. Hands, feet, noise. The only thing that makes her happy are my other dogs, which stay away from her. Everyone is current on vaccines and meds. Maybe coincidence or not, I began to get sick with diarrhea 3 days after I brought her home and still have it.
    Is it urgent to go to vet or wait until end of week when I take her for next set of shots?

    I'd get to the vet asap. 2 rounds of shots doesn't make her safe from Parvo yet - better not take any chances and go get her checked out again, it can be deadly if not treated asap! They do not test for it unless there are symptoms, so even though she was just there... Hopefully it is just a reaction to the meds. Let us know how it goes at the vet. Please go first thing.
