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? | I could be wrong, but I'm thinking just less than a cup of dry a day is too much for a 3 lb. dog...Seems like about 1/4 cup twice a day oughta be about right, but check on the bag, and see what they recommend for your dog's weight and age...Might be why he's pooping so much... |
