In this video by an animal expert, we will address the issue of soft stools in dogs, their causes and what to do to make them softer. So if your dog has started to have soft stools, stay tuned to find out more and solve this problem. Causes of Soft Stool Stools in Dogs A dog's normal stool is neither hard nor soft. Instead, it should be consistent enough to be picked up without any difficulty or mess. Discover the meaning of the eight types of stool in dogs in the video on the card. When a dog produces softer stools than normal, it may be due to the following reasons. On the one hand, it may be due to stress and anxiety. When a dog is more nervous and restless than usual, the stool may become softer, as happens to many people as well. On the other hand, it may be due to sudden changes in diet. When it is necessary to change the dog's food, it should be done gradually, mixing little by little to avoid sudden changes. Soft stools can also be caused by eating spoiled food or foreign bodies, poisoning or internal parasites. Finally, it may be a symptom of a disease or virus, such as inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, parvovirus, canine distemper, or kidney disease, among others. To harden a dog's stool, a series of measures must be taken to return it to a normal and healthy consistency. Let's see what they are first, use an appropriate feed. It is likely that the feed you are giving your dog is not agreeing with it. Look at its composition, label and see if it has a lot of starch from corn and other grains or a lot of fat that softens the stool. If you have recently changed feet abruptly, this may be the cause of the soft stools. Perhaps the dog liked this new feed better and ate it more eagerly or in larger quantities. This causes overexertion in its intestines that leads to soft stools. If this is the case, try giving him a smaller amount per feeding so that he produces fewer stools. It could also be that you are giving him dairy products such as yogurt, cheese, butter, and the lactose they contain is causing diarrhea. Eliminate these foods from his diet or give him some very occasionally but without lactose. 2. Use probiotics when a dog has loose stools. In many cases there has been an imbalance in the intestinal flora necessary for digestion and for the formation of stools with their natural consistency. There are certain probiotics in sachets that are mixed with the dog's food for about five days and help intestinal recovery. 3. Reduce stress A dog can become stressed for several reasons, from changes in his routine or home to doing more exercise than usual. In this case, the solution is to reduce stress by identifying the stressor. In addition, if there is no improvement, you can visit an ethologist who will establish guidelines and treatment. 4. Deworm your dog. A major cause of loose stools in dogs is internal parasites. For this reason, the quick and effective solution is routine internal deworming of our dogs. Above, we are going to leave you a video in which we explain why you should deworm your dog every month. 5. Treat the disease. As we have seen before, several diseases can cause soft stools in dogs. In this case, you should go to a veterinary center to make an accurate diagnosis and establish the treatment. Foods to harden a dog's stool There are foods such as pumpkin that can help harden a dog's stool. You can try adding no more than 2 tablespoons per serving to the feed and assess its effect. You can also use cooked rice or sweet potatoes. Similarly, there are vegetarian diet foods categorized as digestive. By creating smaller and more compact stools due to their composition, they are indicated as support for medical treatment until the disease or disorder that causes soft stools is controlled. In this case, it will be the veterinarian who indicates whether this type of food is necessary or not. Find out more about dog care in the playlist we've left for you here.
