It may just be normal for her but if you are feeding a homemade diet then you need to make sure it is balanced and complete. You can use the website balanceit to make sure the diet is appropriate for a young growing dog. You put in your ingredients and then they formulate a supplement that you can purchase to make sure the diet is nutritionally balanced. Or you could just buy a high quality puppy food and feed that. You should also have her examined by a vet to make sure she doesn't have an intestinal parasite. Your vet can test a stool sample and then prescribe medications, if needed. https://secure.balanceit.com/recipegenerator_ver4/index.php?rotator=EZ
