My boy always gets himself in a tizzy the second he suspects he's going in his trailer. Yesterday he must've done about 6 poos in the space of an hour before we went out! So by the time we got on (doing autumn hunting) it was just liquid slop coming out.. sorry if thats tmi! Anyway, he goes a bit off his food as well and if I try and put anything in it like electrolytes or pink powder he won't eat it. His poos overnight were all still very sloppy so I am jworried that his whole system is upset for 24 hours + and it won't do him any good (he's 16). I give him So Kalm, but has anyone got any other ideas as to what I can do or give him to stop him getting so het up and help his digestive system along.
 
Rather than giving him something to sort out his tummy, why not work on why he gets silly.

Try putting him in the trailer and just go for a hack, so he doesn't associate the trailer with something whizzy like hunting, or maybe just take him for a short drive and come back home.
