Actually pumpkin is good for diarrhea and constipation issues both. Truly a wonderful thing both for humans and for dogs! I raise pugs and when I am transitioning puppies from nursing to puppy food I always introduce pumpkin at the same time. They love it and learn what it is early on in their lives. I am speaking of the 100% pumpkin (not the spiced for pies). I used Libby`s label canned and you can find it in your grocery baking aisle.

It can cause serious constipation if offered too often or given too much. One scoop for a large dog is plenty to help firm loose stools. Purina dog food is almost the worst brand on the market. Almost. Ol'Roy is probably thee worst thing you can food your dog. Quick general rules to go by: First five ingredients count the most; avoid by-products, corn or anything that is not specifically named (poultry, beef, porcine meat - all indicate poor quality). | ||
