    The Nasty Nuggets

    If it looks like this
    Hard, dry pellets that your dog has to strain to pass. Not fun for anyone.

    It's probably this
    Could be constipation. Could be dehydration. Could even be both.

    How'd we get there?
    Lack of fiber, insufficient hydration or blockage from eating foreign matter (toys and hair, we’re looking at you!) are the usual culprits. But excessive grooming is sometimes to blame, as is old age.

    What's the fix?
    Take a look at your dog’s diet, then change it up or change it out - for Heed. You could also add dietary fiber (pumpkin is good), increase hydration and exercise, maybe even introduce probiotics.

    The Log

    If it looks like
    Imagine a gnarled and lumpy log. Yep, there you go.

    It's probably this

    The Mini Brats

    If it looks like this
    Like little party sausages with cracks on the surface. Easy to pass. Easy to pick up.

    It's probably this
    A-grade poop. Jackpot!

    How'd we get there?
    By feeding your fur baby all the right things. (Heed, presumably.)

    What's the fix?
    No fix needed. The proof of perfect inner health is right there on the pavement.

    The Snake

    If it looks like this
    Soft, smooth, and a little soggy. A snake on a rainy day.

    It's probably this
    A-grade poop. Jackpot!

    How'd we get there?

    What's the fix?
    No fix needed. The proof of perfect inner health is right there on the pavement.

    The Soft Serve

    If it looks like this
    A pile of poop that gets passed (a little too) easily.

    It's probably this
    Diarrhea. Need we say more?

    How'd we get there?
    Could be caused by a change in diet, or maybe your dog ate something nasty.

    Stress is another trigger. Moved house? Added a new pup to the fam?

    Diarrhea can also indicate an allergy or intolerance. Or, in more serious cases, an intestinal infection.

    What's the fix?
    Ensure your pooch is drinking enough and not eating too much. Replace the foods that don’t agree with them (try Heed perhaps?). And if things don’t right themselves quickly, make a trip to see your vet.

    The Blobs

    If it looks like this
    A splatter of mushy blobs with ragged edges.

    It's probably this
    Diarrhea. Need we say more?

    How'd we get there?
    Could be caused by a change in diet, or maybe your dog ate something nasty.

    The Puddle

    If it looks like this
    Entirely liquid. Entirely un-pick-up-able.

    It's probably this
    Diarrhea. Need we say more?
