Why is my dog pooping hard balls inside after moving or new food?

Question

My 3 year old staffy has started leaving hard little poop balls inside while she is sleeping and once while eating. We have recently moved house over the weekend and have also bought a different brand of dry dog food. Could either of these be a causing factor ? She is healthy otherwise.

That’s unusual and may be related to the diet or to incontinence. Try switching her food back to her old diet. If the behavior continues, have her examined by the veterinarian. You may also opt to just have her examined before the diet change to check for neurological abnormalities. I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions.
