WOW! I'm just amazed how often Duke stools every day. I really think he poops at least 6x or more a day and the are very substantial.. normal in appearance and firm. Today so far, I've counted 8. =:O Is this common???????? He isn't vomitting or showing any other complaints. He's been sleeping, playing, eating and pooping!

He's on the Chicken Soup dry food for adults.

How old is Duke? Is he a young puppy? Has he always pooped frequently? Young pups go to the bathroom more often then adult dogs...

Duke is going to be 10 weeks tomorrow. And yes, he has pooped like that since we've brought him home! I know they are smaller and need to relieve themselves more frequently, but it's sometimes surprising at how often and how much he poops!

When cody was that young, say from 10-30 weeks he went a lot! I think this is normal. What food does he eat? Cody is 7.5 months now and only goes about 2-3 times a day, which is much better...

We've been feeding him the Chicken Soup for adults. He can go 2-3 times between meals (lately he hasn't been eating much, but still poops a lot).. and his stools are A LOT. And they stink, shew! I thought having a better dog food would help that. :D

Jenn where are you from in NC? Its very ironic but I live in Charlotte,NC and also have a boxer named Duke. He is only 5 weeks old. I was planning on feeding him the Chicken soup for puppies. Anyhow I just wanted to mention that!

hi! I'm right below High Point! Not too far from Charlotte. We started Duke on the CS a few weeks ago and he liked it at first but he hasn't been eating it lately. I can't figure out why! I'm going to visit All Pets Considered in Greensboro for another brand if he doesn't start eating it better. And boy is he a handful! But we absolutely love him :)
