Dunkin is about 11 months old and eats Merrick puppy plate dry food. He seems to like it a lot, and he's been eating that type of food for about two months. The past few weeks, though, he seems to be pooping much more than usual. Maybe 4-5 times a day.

He eats less than a cup a day (morning and evening feed time) and he doesn't usually eat treats throughout the day. Could it just be the food that is causing him to poop a lot? Is this much poop okay for a dog that is only 3lbs? Does anyone else have this situation who is using Merrick?
