Okay, I emailed the breeder about the loose stool and she emailed me the following. Just wondering if this sounds reasonable or brings out any ideas...

"Hi

I guess I would say keep an eye on it today and if it is still loose tomorrow morning, I can send you something for it and therefore save you a trip to the vet. There are a couple of possibilities...it could be just the wormer or the stress of being in a new place. Sometimes pups can have a condition called coccidia and the stress of moving to a new place can bring it out. This is treated with a sulfer based antibiotic called albon or SMZ. I have both in my cabinet and can shoot you some in the mail if it persists.

Let me know how her stool looks in the morning.

Unless it is liquid diarrhea, I wouldn't worry too much."

Sorry to keep dwelling on this, I'm just worried.
