| Too much poop? So I was reading posts on here about puppies going poop around twice a day...that seems to be the norm. Well Mia is 13 weeks today and she poops a lot. She goes around 4-5 times a day. Usually it's two long skinny turds but they are never loose. I'm feeding her blue buffalo small breed puppy. Someone else says blue buffalo caused their puppy to poop more too. Should I be concerned?? Oh and I do also give her blue buffalo treats throughout the day when she goes potty outside or I'm teaching her tricks. I've also been free feeding her but she really only eats probly 1/2 cup a day. It's always fun finding little turds around the apartment ;-)

| Out of all the Yorkies I have had, I only had 3 as babies, and they pooped quite a bit until they reached about 5-6 months old.

YT 2000 Club Member | Well Teeka is 6 1/2 months and she still poops a lot! She goes any where form 3-5 times a day! She is also on Blue Buffalo puppy food....I guess she is just a pooping machine!

| Sounds normal, when Joel was a pup he went that much. |

| Good to hear. Other posts about this were freaking me out. My sister had her dogs on blue buffalo but then switched because one of her dogs had a lot of gas. Mia has some gas but I don't consider it a lot.

| My pups always pooped a lot when they were puppies. The 2 times a day might be about what they do now as adults. When they were puppies they would poop 4-5 times a day easily.

YT 2000 Club Member | Teeka has been on BB for almost 2 months and she never has gas. It must depend on their systems as she is doing great.
