Interesting.....I switched Forde from blue buffalo lamb & rice to Fromm pork and applesauce over a month ago....he loves it...I love it..it's the best....BUT, he also poops ( still solid like always) almost everytime i take him out so i would be very interested in the answers here too......

Finn and Tate are eating NVI LID Lamb also; funny you brought this topic up b/c I noticed that Finn has been pooping more frequently also. Before I was doing home cooking for him and he'd go 2-3 times a day. This a.m. he went three times already! The poops were well formed and not a whole but it still made me curious. I think Tate is going his usual 2-3 times a day but then again, I'm transitioning him back to homecooking for other reasons. Looking at some reviews on the Lamb LID, people have complained of constipation w/their dogs. Obviously not the case here. Other than the poops, Finn seems to be doing well on this food.

Well Jake THINKS every time you go out...he should poo! But maybe their systems need to adjust and it will level out?

It must have a lot of filler in it.

it doesnt have much fillers, guess I just wait and see if he get use to the food. [MENTION=2092]JAKEISGREAT[/MENTION]

I'd give it a couple months...plus how old is Major? They go a lot when young...and may I tell you again..That picture is awesome! I hope you enter it in the calendar contest! :D

Well..honestly..I hate changing foods a lot..but if you see any other problems, I would try another protein. They are all o different it's mind numbing! Honestly, the better foods shouldn't make him go more! Makes me think something is going right through him!

My guess is that you are feeding more than needed perhaps... How many cups per day does he eat? Also right after a switch it takes time to get steady.

he only get 2.5 cups a day same thing with others food but this one is less protein source so its not that way the i feed him, but if its right after i switched food, how come it doesnt happened with other food that i switched it? its been two weeks already. i would hate to change food again, bc this one is so good for him. and he pooped inside today which he never does .

He is obviously having issues with this food. I once switched Jake to NVI salmon..and in 2 days of still doing a slow transition I noticed problems! He didn't even get the full cup of the new food! I took him off it immediately..back on his old food..and waited a few months before trying a different food. He did very well on it and I chalked it up to no salmon for Jake..or chicken.. I think you know it probably isn't the right match for him. Just because it's a good food..means nothing for every Bully..I wouldn't worry about why and just get him back on the food he did well on..maybe with a few days of the bland diet to help keep his tummy calm.

well other food is nothing but problems for him this one is the best, healthy coat, yeast is getting better, no scratching. like i said before i think this is the food for him but he just poop alot, he poop 3 more time already since this morning. fromm made him have hair loss and dry skin, nutrisca gave him yeasty face and feet , Nature's Logic gave himyeast and dry skin. so im still wonder why he still poop a lot

this is the info for new food, nothing is out of ordinary .

maybe cut back to just 2 cups a day... see if it makes a difference. But there could be an ingredient in this food not in the others or higher on the ingredient list that he has issue with
