❤ Foreword

When it comes to soft stool, it's really a bit of a headache. It looks like a shaped stool, but when you pick up the shit, you find that it feels soft. Haha, the officials who pick up shit must have a deep understanding!

What's more! Sometimes Kiki's dog toilet at home has soft poop, which leaks into the grid of the dog toilet, smells bad and is really hard to clean!

The cause of ❤ Kiki's soft stool

To be honest, the probability of Kiki's soft stool is not low at ordinary times. The reasons are as follows:

I. Food exchange

1. When the raw materials of dog food are replaced, for example, the original chicken/fish is replaced by mutton/venison, Kiki is more prone to soft stool.

2. The protein content of dog food increases, for example, when the puffed food is replaced by freeze-dried/air-dried food with high protein content, soft stool will also occur.

Two, catch a cold

A sudden drop in temperature, or a cold after taking a bath, or a cold stomach, can easily cause Kiki's soft stool.

3. Overeating and irregular meals

I remember very clearly that during the Spring Festival, the food at home was good and there were many visitors. The little guy was fed by the "elder" for a while and by the "bear doll" for a while. It was really soft.

Four, eat too much meat, too miscellaneous.

There was a period of time when Kima made homemade fresh food, basically feeding meat + viscera + eggs, vegetables and fruits + cereals were basically not available, plus meaty snacks, immediately soft stool, very clever.

Five, eat too cold, too greasy

1. Kiki eats more raw and cold food, or eats frozen yogurt in the refrigerator in summer, which can cause soft stool.

2, Kiki loves to eat big bones, even if boiled in water, without any seasonings and additives, but small things eat a whole root, the next day will certainly be soft, because the bone marrow in big bones is really a lot of fat.

Nursing method of ❤ Kiki soft stool

1. Dietary adjustment

1. If the soft stool is caused by food exchange, first of all, the new food should follow the gradual food exchange method (through 1-2 weeks of slow transition), so that Kiki can slowly adapt to the new food. If it is impossible to adapt, Kiki will give up the new food.

2. If it is caused by eating too much, too cold, too miscellaneous, too greasy, etc., Kiki will stop eating 1-2 meals first, let Kiki's stomach rest, and then feed some light, digestible food.

2. Feeding probiotics and digestion tablets

Feeding probiotics can regulate the beneficial flora in the gastrointestinal tract, while Xiaoshi tablets generally contain a variety of digestive enzymes, which can regulate the intestinal tract and promote digestion and absorption during the period of food exchange and soft stool.

MAG's probiotics and Madeleine's digestives are both Kiki staples, both of which have good ingredients and palatability.

3. Feeding yogurt

Generally, Kiki is fed with homemade yogurt, or sugar-free yogurt on the market. There are more active lactic acid bacteria in yogurt. Don't feed too cold. It can also regulate the intestines and stomach and promote digestion and absorption.

4. Keep warm

Small short-haired dogs like Kiki are actually more afraid of the cold in autumn and winter. Usually Kiki will pay attention not to let him lie directly on the ground, thicken the mattress to avoid the cold on the ground causing abdominal cold, and add clothes to Kiki if he goes out.

The soft stool of Kiki is mostly related to diet. If the little guy is not accompanied by other symptoms and his mental/dietary status is good, Kiki will not be particularly nervous and will heal itself with a little conditioning.

It is worth reminding that parents should pay attention to the amount of feeding on the package of dog food, and feed the dog according to its weight and activity, so as to avoid the phenomenon of soft stool caused by insufficient nutrition and indigestibility.
