Romeo has been on GI Wet Food Low Fat by Royal Canine. Since being on this food, hes only pooping once a day. He normally poops twice a day prior. He is fine otherwise. Is this normal? Thank you

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Romeo. This is fine, as long as he is pooping at least once a day and otherwise acting normally, there is no need to worry. I hope this helps!
