| Welcome! My two both potty twice a day (once in the morning and once in the evening) however they have both had bouts of diarhhea where they have gone up to 5 times in a day. As long as your baby is on meds he should be back to normal in no time. I also feed mine twice a day |

| thanks.. I am soo paranoid.. I just got him 4 weeks ago and I am just psycho with all the things I think he has lol! The meds are all for worms/parasites.. so hopefully this will fix it..We'll see what the fecal exam says next week I guess.. I am feeding him 1/4 a cup of royale canine twice a day.. but he is just a pooping and peeing machine! I just want him to be perfectly healthy and happy! |

| They really all seem to vary for me and it seems like the smaller ones poo more often. Gracie (9 lbs.) Goes once in the morning and once at night. Sugar (3lbs.) goes twice in the morning and once at night. Then we have my daughter's dog, Spike(4 lbs). Twice in the morning, once during the day, once at night and he wakes up in the middle of the night and poops in her room. Major poop machine! He also pees way more than the other two. I also fee 1/4c food (Merrick dry) twice a day.
