Get the dog to a vet, there could be perasites.
Take the dog to a vet and have it thoroughly checked over than to take the dog when it's dying...been there

Could be the food too. Cheaper dog food has more filler than anything and will make their waste soft and usually alot of it too. Look for food with meat or rice or something like that for a main ingredient. Try to stay away from anything that lists corn meal or similar things for the main ingredient. Less filler equals less poop. I feed my dogs Iams Lamb and Rice and they don't have that problem. Once I bought some 6.99 stuff from the grocery store and it seemed as if it was non stop whining to go out and very loose stool.
You might try changing the food first and see what happens. Good luck!

We moved from Purina Mealtime to Eukenewba Fish and Potato, no fillers more protein, and the fish oils did wonders for the skin and coat. These did create firm stools and like real good dog food less of them.
Good Luck

Could be thier deit,or parisites in the intestins. Either way take them to the vet if it's nothing bad at least you know there healthy, or if it's bad you can get help, good luck I have a 1 year old Pit myself.
