Sloppy Poos in Dogs & How Bone Broth Can Help
If your dog has sloppy poos (soft, unformed, or watery stools), it could be due to digestive issues, food intolerances, stress, or gut imbalances. Occasional loose stools aren’t usually a concern, but frequent or chronic diarrhoea can indicate leaky gut, inflammation, or poor digestion.
How Bone Broth Helps with Sloppy Poo
Bone broth is a gentle, nutrient-rich remedy that soothes the gut and supports healthy digestion.
✅ Why It Works:
- Rich in Collagen & Gelatin – Helps firm up stools by repairing the gut lining.
- Reduces Inflammation – Soothes an irritated digestive system.
- Hydrating & Nutrient-Dense – Replaces lost fluids and electrolytes.
- Easy to Digest – Perfect for dogs with sensitive stomachs.
Other Natural Ways to Firm Up Stools
1. Add Pumpkin or Sweet Potato
- High in fibre & prebiotics to regulate digestion.
- Start with 1 teaspoon (small dogs), 1 tablespoon (medium/large dogs) per meal.
2. Use Probiotics & Digestive Enzymes
- Help restore gut bacteria and improve digestion.
- Try plain probiotic yoghurt, kefir, or a canine probiotic supplement.
3. Feed Slippery Elm or Marshmallow Root
- Forms a soothing gel that protects the gut lining.
- Use in powder form (follow dosage guidelines).
4. Hydrate with Goat’s Milk or Aloe Vera Juice
- Goat’s milk provides probiotics to balance gut bacteria.
- Aloe Vera soothes digestion and reduces inflammation (use in small amounts).
5. Avoid Problematic Foods
❌ Remove grains, processed kibble, dairy, artificial additives that irritate the gut.
✔️ Stick to fresh, high-quality proteins and gut-friendly vegetables.
By combining bone broth, probiotics, and natural gut-healing foods, you can help firm up your dog’s poos and support their digestive health. 🐶💚
