Well that just what it looks like. For about three days now whenever my lab goes it comes out so dry it just crumbles when it hits the ground. The only thing that has been different is she got her parvo shot Saturday. Two vials of blood taken and her thyroid pill is from a different company. Does
anyone have any ideas? It looks yellow and is very dry like chalk. I called the vet and he said he didn't think it was anything. My regular vet is not in until Thursday. Any ideas?

I just noticed that our lab has been dropping chalky poop also. After reading these boards it all makes sense. We butchered cattle 3 days ago and she's been helping herself to some of the left overs. I'll have to start holding back on some of the
bones. I enjoy these boards where so much information is shared, Thank you,

I just wanted to give some updated info here. NEVER feed cooked bones. Raw bones are OK. Hard chalky poo is definitely a sign of too much bone. Poo should be brown, formed and moist and hold it's shape when it hits the ground.

After reading what causes the yellow dry poop my dog has only had one big bone from pet store it was vac packed but did look dry but felt oily and that was three days ago. Everything else has been the same. I feel bad there isn't a bone or toy that last
over night. I guess I'll check it tomorrow if no change take him to the vet. Thank you Jewels

Hi Jewels, I have no previous questions from you to go on but you may
want to try nylabone types of bones and see if that works. Some dogs
with very strong jaws, will 'eat' the bone too fast and have that
effect.

Thank you! My little dog enjoyed a beef rib bone yesterday and pale yellow poop was the result. This also jives with friends and Google. 😊
