Dog's stool loose after adult food transition, even after vet visit?

Question

i switched my dog from puppy food to adult food, we got over three weeks into the transition and her body didn't expect it well, diaherra, so i called my vet, told them, they checked her out, did a test for parasites and there were none, gave her a antibiotic to help firm the stool up, finished the meds but her stool is still more of a pile then firm, is this normal for her now with being on adult food? she is on the blue wilderness chicken flavor food, her behavior is normal. thanks.

No. That is not normal. I recommend to try a different food. Some diets are just too rich for some pets. Try something like Royal Canin. In general this diet line tends to be very easy to break down and does not contain a lot of excessive fillers. Many dogs do wonderful on this diet line. Make sure to transition the diet slowly and you will know within one month if she will do well on this diet or not. I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions.
