[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 559484, member: 84"] Well, Janet if it's loose stool.......that is far more [B]difficult[/B] to hold. Something she is getting is not agreeing with her. (may not be her food, maybe a treat or something) I had to go back to pedigree puppy to get Maggie solid again. She might like other foods, they don't seem to like her though. I *thought* it might be some of the scraps she was getting from the table (although I'm careful with what I give her) but it was the dog food itself, not the table foods. It was a process of elimination, then I had to reintroduce things slowly to watch her reaction. Some rice cooked in beef/chicken broth mix with your baby's food might help firm her up again. But that will not eliminate the problem because you won't know the cause. Maggie does fine on the leash 99 percent of the time. I had to switch to a harness, otherwise it was a constant battle of tug o war with the leash. (play type) That one percent when she is naughty.....is the tug o war, usually because Molly has either stopped or slowed down to the point where she has gotten bored. I have also switched to a retractable leash......when she's naughty she gets put on a "short leash" in which I shorten it to the point she can no longer play tug o war and it stays that way until she calms and resumes walking the way she is supposed to.
