I posted a little while ago about our dog new from rescue, 10 years old, Staffie sighthound cross. She had been in rescue kennels for 10 months when we got her. the original problem was that she is very thin, and that she had loose poo, going up to 8 times a day and we would always come down to 2 poos and some week in the kitchen in the morning.
she is a delightful dog and very well behaved in all respects, and she does know how to ask to go out.We take her for a last 30 minute walk at 10pm and get up at 5am to take her for the first of her 3 walks a day. We are getting there. Her poo is now firm and she does not wee in the house at night, but there is usually one poo. How can we help her be fully clean overnight? We feed her at about 6pm, 1.5 cartons of Naturediet as advised by the rescue people, she is 16 kg.
I'm sure the naturediet suits her but wonder if the timing of the feeding might be one of the factors here.

The doghouse
Rescue dog much improved ... still a little tweaking needed.
