Since I got my 5 year old I have had several issues. but we finally cleared up quite a bit. We found out he had a rather large bladder stone filling up most of his bladder. he had surgery and had it removed. now since he has been home he has been on a urinary tract food and I have been worried about him loosing wieght so I let him eat as he pleases, but he is only around 3.4-4 pounds now. My issue is every time I step outside to his cage when he eats, there is litterally tons of poop. I have a 30 pound labradoodle as well and im not even going to exaggerate, but he poops more than she does every day. is this normal? namely my garage has turned into a minefield with little presents everywhere. I should also add that since he has been on this food his bm's are explosive and much lighter in color and the smell is much more foul. I took him outside a few mornings ago he ran around the side of my fiances car and it sounded like a whoopie cushion was going off. he managed to even get it on my garage door.

Im happy hes gaining weight since hes had so many issues, but I cant imagine its good for him to be pooping this much.
