Why is my dogs poo always soft?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Soft, Loose Stool If your dog's poop seems soft and loose, it may just be an indication of a change in diet, or it may mean your dog has been eating things they shouldn't be eating. If you've changed your dog's diet recently, monitor changes in poop. You may have to alter the diet if it doesn't improve.


Should I be concerned if my dogs poop is soft?

Note that the occasional soft or loose stool can be perfectly normal. However, any time a dog is having multiple soft or loose stools, any time a dog is having watery stools, or any “increased softness” of stools that persists for more than a couple of days definitely warrants veterinary evaluation.

How can I firm up my dogs soft stool?

To firm up your dog's stool, try switching to a high-quality, low-fat dog food that lists meat as the main ingredient. Also, if your dog currently eats wet food, gradually replace the wet food with dry food until your dog is only eating dry food, which can help make its stools firmer.
