Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! That is a lot of stool! If the stool isn't diarrhea and is formed then I would blame the digestibility of the food you are feeding and would change brands of food. Individual dogs can digest the same food differently. I wish you the best!
