I've been giving her about 1T of pumpkin everyday for the past week and her poos are now twice a day (morning and night) and instead of the balls they are bigger and more together. I think they look normal now. Anyone else experience this with raw or Stella and Chewy's? Do not want to switch foods so is the pumpkin ok to continue giving her? Thanks!
I see no reason why you could not give pumpkin everyday. You could also try sweet potato (cooked) or frozen but thawed green beans for variety as both will add fiber and water as well. Some dogs have hard stools depending on diet. As long as she is not straining to poop or they are too hard, then she is probably fine.
