Question
Hello Maria,I have two bullies 11 weeks old,I have been fighting loose stool since I have brought them home. I tried Innova/Calif.Natural Chicken and rice I dont know what else to do to get it firm do you think its the food???Help Thanks Michelle

Answer
Hi Michelle, you may want the vet to check the stool for parasites.  Very common at this young age of 11 weeks.
HOW about adding some pure canned pumpkin ( the no added sugar kind);

Also, feed this home-made bland diet for the next week.  Feed 4 x per day in small amounts:


Chicken Dinner

1/2 cup cooked rice or pasta
1/2 cup non-fat cottage cheese
1/2 skinless chicken breast meat, poached and shredded
1/4 cup steamed vegetables, chopped or shredded ( use blender)
Mix rice and cottage cheese in a medium sized dog dish. Add chicken and veggies.
Sprinkle with crushed dog vitamins.
Dog vitamins is the NuVET powder - wonderful for puppies!
Also, helps with digestion and loose stools...

Call NuVET to order: Holistic and very safe:
Each pup needs only 1/4 a teaspoon per day - mixed into one meal.
Or, you can mix the NuVET into cottage cheese...

I am sure this special food diet and NuVET will help....Along with the pumpkin-

BEST wishes!
