    I gradually changed rolo onto skinners puppy food. His poos are more consistent and i was happy with the changeovee but today i noticed his poo looks like it had popcorn kernels in ? Like its so speckly FULL of seed looking things. Anyone have any experience? Am going to ask the vet tomorrow

    it sounds as if he's managed to snaffle some bird food? A dropped fat ball maybe?

    Yup, sounds like he's eaten something else. I wouldn't worry, just keep an eye on it. When Willow nicks the figs from the garden, her poos look like the insides of fig rolls. Yummy :)

    Oh yes. Coco hoovers up under the bird feeders. A whole fat ball makes him sick :rolleyes:

    Yeah, fat balls are not dog friendly!!
    I can't remember, but does some bird food consist of hemp seeds? Can get your dog a little "high"? I'm not sure that is possible as the hemp seeds haven't been "processed" to make the hallucinogenic chemical, but I am sure we had a discussion about that at some point..........
