Hello guys, I am new here and don't know if this is the place to ask, but I feel like it is. Can you please tell me if it is normal for a puppy to have darker poops. My dog is a Dogo Argentino 3 months old. I have been feeding him high quality puppy food and was wondering if the food can color the poops this way. Another not is that he does not seem to show any signs of being in pain or anything even if I lightly push on his stomach. I am considering to take him to the vet, but I have had frequent visits (at least once a month) for vaccines and they have always said that is growing up just right.
P.S. The food I have been buying for it is "Naturea Puppy"and "Naturea Growth"
>>
P.S. Here are the ingredients for each of the foods

It should be normal if it's just "somewhat dark". I pup's poop changed colour from light brown to dark brown while growing up despite sticking to the same food for the first year of his life. Their digestive system is pretty tricky. But still somewhat hardness, wholeness and even smell are more important that slight change in color. Any unnatural colour like green, red and blue is sill bad though. Feel free to post pics, I think /an/ is pretty used to puppy poo.

Posting a question about the pooh without providing a picture of both the dog for cutes and the pooh for reference is pretty rude imo

Haha, sorry about not replying, thought the thread died. I can post a picture of the puppy. I talked to the vet, they said it could be normal. Here some pictures of the little guy

I will post poopy pics when he goes to the bathroom again.

"High quality" puppy food will cause darker poops. This is because of the amount of nutrients in it. There is nothing to be concerned about. You're doing great.

If it is always that color, it feels pretty solid (one nice thing about using those little bags to clean up after them), and he isn't struggling to pass it, I would guess he is okay.

Please don't, the vet already told you it's normal.
