So, sunday morning I run out and get their food (nutro Ultra). Sunday, no problem. Monday morning, they get a Beneful treat (don't EVER buy those). Now I have to clean up bright green diarreha. Moses cannot tolerate any change to diet, I know that, but forgot. Now I am dealing with the mess. Serves me right.

I know Beneful is not a good food, but husband won't let me change Homer's (the lab's) food. The treats come free in the big bag of food. They have so much dye in them, they color their poop whichever color the treat is. Peapods, bright green, carrots, orange, tomatoes, bright red. Never, never, never again.

Gee,I have always fed mine Beneful starting with puppy, on to adult and weight management formula, never experienced a problem in eight years. All mine are healthy and problem free. I never noticed any coloring of their stools either. Guess all dogs are different in the way they handle a certain food, just like people.
