Another Poo Question

Max has only been pooping once a day. It's normal, he doesn't try to eat or anything (thank goodness!).... but is once typical? I've only had him a week and don't know if he is still adjusting.

Thanks

I wish Archie would poo once a day - 4 times on this mornings walk - fortunately all of a manageable consistancy, so not an issue.


Probably depends on type of diet number of feeds and amount of exercise the pup gets.
Barney sometimes will only poop once a day. It's a 50-50 chance with him. If we go for walks he'll most likely poop several times, but on an average day with only a small walk, he might just poop once. I assumed it was just normal for him.
I wouldn't worry too much about any of his functions yet. he's still settling in so everything may be a little "off." As he becomes more comfortable in his new home, he'll settle into a schedule that you'll be able to depnd on more.
Want to trade :D Molly will go once, but as she will not stop long enough to go, it will stretch a mile and a half :lol:

Max has a tendency to wander also. I picture myself chasing him down the road waving my plastic bag!

"If you feed them once a day, they supposed to poop twice a day." - I've read it somewhere. But honestly, I don't agree with this. I can't tell you how many times the boys poop/day. On our morning walk/hike in the woods they poop at least twice. If we are jogging, they poop more.

I also agree with Jill.

Archie is fed twice a day

On his longer daytime walk as previous stated up to 4 times and normally on hi shorter walks some times he will have three of these in addition to his long walk he'll normally go once sometimes twice per short walk., I don't know where it all comes from? :lol:
