My dog has always had loose stools. I now feed him a home prepared diet with the help of Diana Lavadure. (co-author of Nutrigenomics). My dog is fiber responsive. Psyllium does the trick for him. Pumpkin gave him diarrhea. You’ll need to go thru a canine nutritionist to figure out dosage . You can try this on you own, but I’d seek professional help. I would NOT add bonemeal to any commercially prepared dog food of any kind–frozen or canned or otherwise because they factor in the proper dosages of calcium in those foods. Adding extra would unbalance his food. Probiotics and digestive enzymes did not improve the quality of my dog’s stools. Fiber is what did it for him. I feed him one teaspoon of psyllium a day. He is 31 pounds. Tread lightly with additives of any kind.
It could be your dog has food sensitivities since you tried all those things and they didn’t work. finding the food or foods that he is reactive to can be an exhaustive process. Good luck.
