Yes you can certainly give her 1-2 tsp if Cannes pumpkin (not the pie filling) in her food daily to see if that helps. If she still has loose stool after 3 days or so then it’s best to get her seen by your vet to have her stool checked for parasites and get her treated. Best of luck with Smokey moving forward. Take care.
