Hi Nichole,
have a look at “4Health” Special Care Sensitive Stomach dog formula sold at Tractor Supply, it is just Potato & Egg so not too many ingredients, you need to try a limited ingredient kibble,…..
Read ingredient list that he’s eating at the moment & kibbles he’s eaten before is there a common ingredient in these kibbles that are causing diarrhea/sloppy poo’s??
alot of the newer grain free kibbles are using Lentils & Chickpeas (Garbanzo beans) now & dogs with Sensitive stomach, IBD IBS do not do will on lentils & Chickpeas, my IBD boy does not do well on barley, lentils, chickpeas you need to work out what is causing his diarhea/sloppy poo’s, poor thing…..

When a dog has diarrhea/sloppy poo’s it’s best to feed potato & sweet potato, look for a limited ingredient kibble that has 1 meat protein & 1 carb either potatoes, sweet potatoes or both have you tried “Natural balance” LTD formula? look at the Natural Balance LTD Sweet Potato & Bison, or Potato & Duck or Sweet Potato & Fish formula’s, a few ladies on here have puppies they’re doing well on the NB Sweet Potato & Fish formula…

To balance a cooked diet have a look at “Balance It” http://securebalanceit.com/
maybe if you found a kibble that agreeed with him & he started doing firm poo’s you wont have to cook & pay extra for meat, sweet potato, potato & “Balance It” etc…
If you do still have the Purina Forti Floria probiotic still give it to him in the cooked meal, you may not see any difference but it would be helping his stomach/bowel become healthy but just rememeber, only add 1 new thing at a time, dont add too many new things all at once or you will not know what is working & what isnt working….
