i feel like my puppy bruce as an intollerance toward the blue bull chicken and rice puppy food! he has has diarrhea ever since i started him on that food .. he also had giardia at the same time but he is healthy now.... but he still poops like crazy !
does anyone have similar experience with blue ?
i just switched him to royal canin bulldog food .. even though hes only 5 month old .... but i read so many good things about it .... even from people that tried it on 6 month old pups !

well just so ya know
Giardia sheds in cycles, Pups can pick it up and not show symptoms for some time. This is often why repeat stool samples should be done. I had a rescue pup who had this issues. not sure how long your baby was treated, but hopefully long enough and is not recontaminated.
Keep me posted

I have eight dogs. They all eat California Natural, Herring and sweet potato. I have two 7 month old puppies that I had on California Natural puppy foor, which is chicken and rice. They had loose stools the whole time. I finally read the article that someone on the board wrote the other day, which referred to not feeding puppy food because of the bone growth, etc. I had already started getting them on the adult california natural and their stoolos are great now, less and firm. Try that. Blue Buffalo didn't work for me either, I have tried many, many, foods including the raw diet, which my vet had fits with.

well... i thought about it... hes getting his booster shots tomorrow and i will ask them to do another giardia test !
his poop actually smells just like the food he eats + some stink lol.... ist not slimy... more watery...it shoots out of his little but like a fountain (sorry for the graphic picture lol) ; but i feel like since he is eating the bull formula he is pooping less.... still not solid...but not as watery and it completely smells like his food !

Good luck with him:-)
I fed RC Bully 24 for a long time, but got a puppy that needed something different, so I switched to Natural Balance. Fits well for both my girls right now. May go try Bully 24 again someday now that the pup is older and her tummy is better.

Blue Buffalo causes a lot of stool with my dogs.
I love that food, it is great food, but I don't feed it because of the amount of poop they produce with it!!
I seldom feed any puppy food at all, even to puppies! I always just put them on adult dog food. RC Bulldog 24 is good food, your pup should do fine on it.

I feed orijen
I don't like royal canine, lots of allergy problems and very fattening. Mine before had been on Taste of the wild pacific stream, firm poop, but they didn't really like it. I just found out about Orijen chicken+turkey+fish, they don't care much for the salmon kind. They all love this and no allergies or even vomitting. I also feed grand-dad's chicken blend roll that I cook and mix some in with their kibbles, I don't do raw and the picky eater is gaining weight and the fur is soft and shiny, poop is firm too which is a plus. All my puppies eat adult food and this food is for all stages.

have you rechecked his stool?
it could be that he has recontaminated himself with giardia again or coccidia?
is is slimy, have a funny smell?
food changes take a few weeks but given his history, the above is possible as well. Kiddie pools, old fecal matter he may be eating, etc..
