Puppies do have more bowel movements than adult dogs. Most adult dogs typically have two to three movements a day but this is very much impacted by their food. The brand Royal Canin is low residue in all of their diets and typically has low stool production and maintains a very high-quality. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
