Do not read if about to eat !!
Can anyone advise what may be causing soft yellow poo ? His first poo of the morning seems to be harder and darker, but later on it is yellow, is this normal ?
Any tips would be appreciated,
alfie's mum

Is Alfie doing more poos than usual?
-
Have you changed anything that he eats?
-
he is doing 2/3 poos a day, we have only had him for a month and he eats Hill's and dog treats. He has always done 2 poos a day.
-
Is Alfie stretching as if in a play bow position? And how long has his poo been yellow?
-
I may be being dim - what is play bow position ? His poo has been yellow for about 2 weeks

sorry been out so couldn't answer your post and no your not dim ;) Just thought I'd ask if alfie was stretching with half body (front end) stretched out and bum up in the air like they are stretching after having a nap but this also indicates a pain in the stomach(not saying it is ) just an indication
I would say to talk to your vet if yellow poos keep continuing just to be on the safe side ;) HTH

Hi
I am wondering what dog treats your giving him? I know some dog treats Frolic being one, are high in colourings perhaps tahts where this is coming from? Just a thought, hope all is well :)

I feed my two on JWB with a bit of Nature diet mixed in. They don't get too many treats but quite a few rawhide chews as Jovi is a right chewer...
I don't get to see Neo's so much as he's goes in the middle of the mead lands privately, but Jovi is quite similar, dark poo hard at first and then they get softer and yellower as they go along (more tan colour then canary yellow). From what I've seen of Neo's poo he's the same too.
I don't usually worry too much, although Jovi does eat quite a few things he's not supposed too (anything made from wood) and I'm always retrieving things from him he shouldn't have, so I just keep an eye on it from that perspective.
