hey everyone —
I fed my 80lb 1.5 year old lab, Rusty, grain free chicken dry food mixed with chicken dehydrated (add water) raw food. i noticed if i ever fed him just the dry food without the wet, he’d get very loose poop almost 100% of the time.
this lead me on my journey to attempt fixing this. so in order here are my moves —
-moved him over to grain free beef (fromm’s beans). the transition period went alright. maybe things were slightly better. too soon to tell. then we go to the vet for a couple updated vaccinations and they tell me he need to be on dry food with grains and that both beef and chicken have the highest rates causing a sensitive stomach.
-begin transitioning him over to fromm’s lamb with grains
-we’re 4 days in and things aren’t going very well. first poop starts solid and ends very runny.
with all these switches i’m completely lost now. if we switch, i don’t know what i should even be using for transition food considering all the switches. ive ordered a dog stomach sensitivity test online, so that’s our next move to try to figure out how this can be fixed. it’s breaking my heart. i want my boy to have great poops asap. any advice??
