    Default Poop Chart!

    I think a scoring system is great for evaluating poop, because its just one of the fun pleasures of dog ownership! Even though this chart depicts kibble fed poo, it can still be applied to raw feeding. Here is a scoring system to know what actual diarrhea looks like as well as what ideal bowel movements look like. I see all the time what people say is "diarrhea" when in actuality its just "soft serve" because there is a difference. Please reference this chart for future reference

    That's just gnarly.

    But I guess this proves that Purina is good for SOMETHING; they provided this usefull chart so that we can see the ideal poos that you get from feeding something that is the oposite of their (pardon the pun) CRAPPY product! LOL! Ideal except for their monsterous size, i mean...

    I see all of them at my work, but never 100. Which is just sad.

    I see them all here too, but some that rank in the 100 category...but not the majority.

    since i started feeding cooked and then raw.....stools are the main discussion between honey and i.

    it's like an obsession with us....

    curious about something...and gotta love that chart....once dogs do stabilise, do the poops stay somewhere between 75 and 100 consistently? or do they go back and forth?

    and...

    am i the only one who examines my dogs' poo....

    Amaya had a...weird one...to say the least.

    The other day when we took her for a walk, she pooped, and it was orange/green SLIME with little CHUNKS. Literally, CHUNKS. It looked like slime with pieces of chewed gum in it.

    What do you make of that? O.o
