My 6-month-old puppy's poop gets runny later. Is this normal?

Question

My 6month old whippet has started having diahorrea on occasions, if she doesn't have a poo for a while like overnight the first poo she does is firm and normal looking but as she does more poos throughout the day they get runny. She is always hungry also, was wormed about a month ago. Is well in herself though. Is this normal? Thanks. Pet's info: Dog | Whippet | Female | unspayed | 6 months and 15 days old

I would recommend switching the diet that has more fiber and that might agree with her a bit better. If after switching the diet and treats, she is still having problems with her poop, I would recommend bringing a poop sample to your veterinarian and have it tested for parasites. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions / concerns. Also, be sure to check and see if she is eating any plants or other abnormal things intermittently that may be causing the diarrhea.
