My Husky gave birth to 7 puppies 3weeks ago. She is eating, drinking, attending her puppies and everything well. No discharge or fevers, but she’s had watery green diarrhea since she gave birth.
After 1 week it looked like it was getting better but quickly went back to watery. Is there anything I can give her to help her with her stool?

Get your dog to the Vet immediately and along with your pups

A trip to the vet is what your Husky needs. Green means infection or decay from a retained puppy inside her. This is NOT normal and the dog may need a c-section to remove the remains of the fetus and should be spayed when opened.

If you didn't get the mama & pups to a Vet with in 24 hours of birth for a wellness exam, she may have something still inside her that didn't come out when the pups were born. there could even be a dead pup up inside her. If she is sick & nursing pups, what is it doing to the pups? making them sick, too?
She & her pup should go in now for a wellness exam on the mama & each one of the pups. Being a ignorant BYBer you may not have known that you needed to do this. Good chance mama could die & leave you bottle feeding the pups.

Yes, you can take her to a Veterinarian before she dies of infection.
So, how much money can a clueless back yard breeder make from a litter, taking into consideration the health problems suffered by the mother?

Get your dog to the veterinarian there's a chance that the dog's rectum or anus was ripped internally while giving birth and now she's infected internally. She's going to need antibiotics so get her checked out by the vet
