I just thought I would add - you may want to try Canidae - it is grain free. Solid Gold is another great product I have my bas on.
Changing to EVO a question and concern
-
What was the protein source of their last food?
Mine are all eating a red meat formula right now. I also found that my one girl seems to better on red meats and duck rather than foods that are primarily turkey or chicken. Some chicken and/or turkey is fine but she does better if they are not the primary protein source.
-
Mine are all eating the red meat also…. and I have not had any problems with stools...
And yes, heat and exercise can have an effect on stools, at least in my experience.

Jack always takes a really loose, runny poop at the end of a walk.
And now I feel weird, so that is all I will say about poop

Why???
Isn't that what dog people talk about…. and how excited we get when we take them out to pee and poop and they do?... -
We made the switch from Blue Buffalo to Evo Red Meat in a matter of a couple days– and we did not have any stool issues. They are pretty solid. Try the red meat and see if that helps your pooches at all.

I am really pleased with the red meat EVO…..

We have always used the chicken EVO, mixed with a bit of regular Innova. On the EVO alone, they have very soft stools, and the mix firms it up a little, but it is still soft. I think next bag (in another month) I may switch to red meat EVO, thanks for the recommendations!

We are very fortunate to have the advice of the pet food store owner we deal with, who happens to have a Master's degree in animal nutrition. He gave us red meat sample bags to last us a few days while we changed the pooches over and watched their stools. We are getting more solid stools today, so he had us bring back our chicken and turkey based product for full credit, and sold us a small bag of Red Meat EVO. We will continue to watch their stools over the next couple of days.
The weather here has been in upper 80's the last few days with very high humidity. I am sure the temps, along with the 6 miles we do daily has had some effect on their stools.
Oh by the way, if all goes well for us tomorrow, we will finally get Roo in the sailboat while its in the water and we sail in a distance race.

I just switched from EVO to Orijen– and guess what... they're now picking out all the Orijen and leaving the EVO!! Crazy!!
