[kent]

hi, recently i read a book about dog and mentioned that inorder to determine if the dogfood is a ok for a dog it will depends on the firmness and odor of the dog stool? and it also indicate that the stool shouldnt have any bad odor..but dba stool talaga yun eh d namn talaga maiiwasan ang bad odor? hope to hear from you soon thanks

LOL LOL! Well I don't make it a habit to smell dog POO! LOL LOL!

But seriously, the better the food, the less stool is produced.

Also iba iba naman talaga amoy nang stool, kung healthy yung dog, iba amoy kung sick aso iba rin smell, di ko lang alam if iba iba dog food iba iba rin amoy, LOL!

ah ok...lol...d ko naman sinasadya na amuyin but minsan if nagpoo poo cla mangangamoy lolz...tnx for your reply

in fairness hindi lang scent ang i-consider

kasama na dito ang consistency, color and amount

correct si fantasia, the less poop the better the food

check the consistency, it should be firm but not hard.

as for the smell, no comment. hehehe joke lang kent

mahirap pag mag LBM ang shih tzu as marami buhok, so always use a wet tissue or no rinse shampoo.

or any deodorizer na pang dog and hindi harsh sa coat.
i stick to no rinse shampoo

ah ok thanks very much for the info

i just to comment na odor of the poop might be misleading ;D kasi may ibang dog food na may deodorizing content... if uncertain ka if healthy dog mo i'd suggest grab a sample and have it tested by a good vet na may LAB.. and according sa vet ko urine check mo din coz ang common na sakit na naaacquire ng dog sa urinary tract... ako kasi medyo OC sa health ng dog kahit gumastos na ako ng gumastos sa vet ok lang.. now healthy naman dogs ko pero may routine GENERAL CHECK UPS ako sa calendar once a month... i have their blood tested, urine, and stool din. I'm not suggesting gayahin mo ako ha? HEHE baka batukan tayo pareho.. pero un lang kung feeling mo may mali pa check mo na lang lahat.. after all we can never be too sure diba?
