Is this a normal poop? This after my dog had Natural Balance canned food. Is it too big? She's 17 pounds. It looks ok to me but I just want to make sure. Pet's info: Dog | Cavalier King Charles Spaniel | Female | spayed | 5 years and 3 months old | 17 lbs

Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. It does not look as if your picture was uploaded. I would suggest reposting with the picture attached. If you are concerned about the stool being too large in quantity sometimes foods high in fiber can lead to this increased volume of stool. As long as it is not causing any discomfort or problems this is fine. However, sometimes a diet high in fiber can increase the frequency at which the dog needs to defecate and if Chloe is home alone for any long period of time without being able to go outside, you may find that she will be unable to hold her stool for a long period of time. I hope this helps! Please feel free to contact me with any further questions that you may have. I am also available via phone or text base consultation if needed
