I'm gonna do a food trial... maybe I will just use boiled chicken this week instead of wet food.... pretty certain the walks aren't too long. He can usually go all day long with no problems (even if I'm not 'forcing' him with a walk- he will run for hours outside at my dads house, and even swim for hours a lot, etc by choice so I know he's got the energy to keep up).

The only thing i can think of is maybe the walks get his anal glands to empty out when he poos, that "liquid" could make his poop look softer and would DEFINATLY make it smell worse. If that's the case, it's not a bad thing, at least they're emptying

I think you guys are probably right! Never thought about that. Something to think about- thanks!
