Decoding Your Dog’s Poop – What Does Healthy Look Like?
From firm to funky: what does your dog's poo say about their health?
Now, let's talk about something we all dread but can't ignore—keeping tabs on your pooch's potty routine is key to their top-notch health and happiness. Sure, it's not sexy, but neither are lots of things in life so we might as well confront them head on or at least have a little giggle while on the subject.
Paying attention to how often they go, what it looks like, and even its hue can clue you in on any sneaky health hiccups.
In this edition of the blog, we'll dive into the telltale signs, dish out some tips on the perfect poo consistency, dish on diet tweaks, and dish up some juicy resources for more deets. Let's keep those furry pals feeling fine and dandy, shall we?
Recognising Signs of Potential Issues
First up, let's talk consistency. If you start seeing a spike in how often they're making a pit stop, like from once daily to a three-time-a-day or more type extravaganza, or if their stool's firmness takes an unexpected turn, it's like a red flag waving in the wind! Keep those peepers peeled for these shifts, and if they stick around, it’s important to consult your veterinarian for a more thorough investigation. Some signs to be aware of include:
Straining to defecate
Dry or overly firm stools
Diarrhoea or loose stools
Changes in stool volume and colour
Understanding Ideal Poop Consistency
For those curious about what constitutes healthy poop, there is a helpful visual chart available that can assist you in assessing your dog’s “business.” In general, stools falling under Types 2-4 on the chart are considered normal and ideal in most cases. The chart below is a handy guide to better understand your dog’s poop consistency and overall digestive health.
