| Help her poop better Maddie is 6.5 months old and currently on Royal Canin Indoor Puppy. She doesn't have a regular poop schedule. Sometimes she only poops once a day and it is MASSIVE and other times she will poop 3 times a day, normal loads. She has a firm potty schedule. Is there any better food that would help her poop more regularly? Or is this pooping schedule ok? I just feel so bad for her when she only poops once a day b/c it is a lot more than normal.... |

| My Brandi is the same way and she eats Canadie's chicken and broth. Anything else just gives her the runs. She is on a regular eating schedule, once in the morning and once in the evening. I take her out to poop on schedule several times a day. Some days she will poop at least two times a day and other times she will only poop one time a day. As long as her poop is firm (but not too firm) and she is pooping everyday, I don't really worry about it. Now if she were to go a day or two without pooping then I would worry |

| I've heard of Royal Canin being the cause of a lot of pooping issues and tummy issues. Not for every dog, but they're all different. Jackson eats Nature's Variety Instinct and generally speaking has 2 nice firm poopies a day! He poops in the morning and the evening. When I mix in wet food for him, sometimes he will go 3x though.

| Oh, I also forgot to mention that she gets 1/3 package of Cesar's wet puppy food a night...hmmm..idk...I just want her to have the best. I know Cesars is probably not anywhere near the best, but there are so many options I am overwhelmed... |

| I used to give my some Ceasars wet too with their kibble, they pooped alot. I switched them (five) to nothing but Royal Canine and fruits & vegtables, and they all poop 1-3 times a day. Mine range in ages 6 months to 8 yrs.
