What should I do if my pet has an unusual stool sample?
More often than not, diet is the reason for your pet’s softer stools. Some remedies include adding a probiotic powder to your dog’s current food or switching to a diet of plain rice and chicken for a while. Canned pumpkin (not spiced pie filling!) has also been known to help regulate bowel movements. If the diarrhea returns, consult your vet for more guidance.
