My dog's second poop is diarrhea. Is this normal? How can I fix it?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Collie | Female | spayed | 4 years and 9 months old | 83.5 lbs

Her second poop is usually diarrhea. No blood and usually a light brown color. Is this normal? If not, how do I fix this permanently? It's not diet, I haven't changed that.

No, it's not normal. even if you have never changed the diet, this is definitely not something you can rule out. you can try a supplement called ProFibre, it helps solidify the faeces, although if she is having proper diarrhoea you should take her to the vet in order to get that checked first.
