Husky has diarrhea 3weeks after giving birth?
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?

I would have the vet look at her. Doesnt seem normal even for a new mom. Poor baby😔

Did you have your vet check your b itch immediately after you felt she'd finished whelping - along with her puppies. Clearly this isn't normal. There will be some looseness after giving birth if she was able to eat the placenta but not 3 weeks later.
This is urgent.
If the pups are doing well, you may be looking at starting to weaning process - normally done from the end of the 3rd week - into the 4th in any case.

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.

That's not normal I honestly suggest you go to the clinic and have your dog checked out for that, that's not normal behavior for a dog who just gave birth.

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?

This is NOT normal. We cannot diagnose your dog. Consult your vet at once. She is already being badly run-down & DRAINED by the puppies, She cannot afford to have ONGOING LIQUID diarrhea. (You ought to know that!)

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
