Soft stools after a diet change are quite common, especially in puppies whose digestive systems are still developing. It often happens when the transition to the new food is too abrupt. Ideally, food transitions should be gradual, mixing increasing amounts of the new food with decreasing amounts of the old food over 7-10 days. If the soft stools persist, become watery, contain blood, or your puppy shows other symptoms like vomiting or lethargy, it could indicate an intolerance or an infection.
