I'm currently a college student who owns an Australian Shepherd + unknown mix (potentially some type of terrier and/or pitbull) 7 year old female, 40lbs. I take her on 2-3 10 minute walks a day because of time constraints, so she's minimally active. I switched her to Pedigree canned dog food for enrichment and nutrition purposes. She was fixed in January and ever since has had soft stools. The vet put her on antibiotics and I was feeding her a mixture of rice/oatmeal, pumpkin, and boiled chicken/scrambled eggs, which helped make her bowel movements firmer. Once I transitioned her back to the canned food, the soft stools returned. Her behavior also has not changed, so she's likely not detrimentally sick and she recently had her stool sample tested but everything came back negative.
I want to feed my dog a balanced diet that is exciting for her to eat, but, as a college student, I don't have very much of a budget to feed her a raw diet from any of the major brands that sell their products (i.e. We Feed Raw). I want options that are budget friendly, take minimal/a little time to prepare. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
