My puppy suddenly started only pooping late at night and his stool has been loose. He has been going at least twice a night. Last night he went three times between 2am and 5am and none of the stools were solid. He normally poops multiple times during the day during our walks, but lately he has not pooped even once on a walk. He is 4 months old and he is usually good about letting me know when he needs to go by whimpering. He did throw up once about three nights ago, but his energy levels seem normal and he acts completely fine throughout the day.
The only new things I recently introduced were a chicken flavored bone treat with a filling and a chicken sausage treat from Costco. I have stopped both to see if that helps and I also started him on a probiotic. If this continues tonight I am planning to take him to the vet since most offices were closed today. Another recent change is that I started fully covering his crate before bed. He does not cry or bark when it is covered.
He is still peeing normally on walks, but the nighttime pooping around 2 to 3am is completely new for him. Has anyone experienced something similar or have any tips?
