Cazzie is being fed James Wellbeloved puppy food but she doesnt like it much and her stools are very loose. she isnt running but there is no form (Yuck) please help.
 
You don't need specific puppy food, that's a massive marketing ploy by greedy companies. Runny poo suggests the pup isn't using/digesting the food properly. Maybe look for a no cereal food as this is indigestible and will not help to give firm poo.

This website lets you choose a food with no cereal:

You could try Fish4dogs, which has no cereal. Wainwright's trays from Pets at Home are also very digestible.
 
We had this with our youngest Spinone, she is two now, we tried several different puppy food, she had been getting JWB when we got her, always was very loose, only improved when we changed her onto raw food, she has never looked back, can only assume she has cereal alagies of some sort.
 
JWB gave my lab severe vomiting and diarrhoea after a few weeks of being on it... She litterally became intolerant of it, and had to go on a probiotic diet from the vet to get her better (I know it was the JWB, as
I introduced a small amount and she had exploding bottom again)
My vets receptionist recommended the food below, and my lab has been on it ever since with solid poos (she's 4yrs old now)

I feel like a one man band advert for this company, but can assure you I'm in no way linked, but an extremely satisfied customer with a happy, odour free and well dog
