Hi there. Tobi's stools are not normal, it appears that he isn't digesting his food well, hence the color and loose nature of the stool. You can start trying to supplement his diet with some canned puppy food. This will help balance things. I'd also make sure he's been dewormed because parasites can cause issues. Ideally, Tobi should be seen by a vet to make sure nothing else is going on as well. I hope that helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
