Looser stools could be caused by a number of things including a sudden change in diet, too many treats or snacks, or an underlying issue such as GI upset or parasites. If the change was recent and you changed Carl's food or gave him a new treat or snack, removing all extras and giving him a day or two to get used to the new food may help. If the loose stools continue, or nothing has changed for him diet-wise, a checkup with your vet along with bringing in a fecal sample can help rule out any illness or issues causing it.
