I think it's better if she only eats dry food. Does she drink enough water? You could also buy some plain canned pumpkin. It is full of fiber and your puppy should like it. My dog does although I've only given it to her when I was making a pie. If you do buy some, make sure it is the plain pureed. The pumpkin pie mix already has sugar and spices in it which you don't want.
I do see her drinking water and she only gets the wet food twice a day. I mix very little of the wet with her kibbles...just to like coat them...Just to kinda keep her poop a little softer....I really don't think it is anything to be overly concerned about but I am going to mention this to her vet on Thursday.

Thank you
