I have a pomeranian that I got 3 days ago.he is 10 10 weeks olds. I don't know what they feed him before, I'm giving him Iams. the first day he was Ok but the next 2 days he had diarrea and today he had a little bledding and it smell bad. Is this from the change of diet or do you recoment to take him to the vet.

Hi
Starve your Pom for 1 day (plenty of water) and then try feeding a very bland diet only for a few days. A good example would be boiled rice and cooked chicken, in small portions. If the diarrhea doesn't stop, or if he seems depressed and weak, he must go to the vet in case he has picked up a nasty infection like parvovirus.
