Whenever a dog has issues that are not normal for him, then I recommend seeing a vet or health care professional. Make sure your dog is free of parasites and is not dealing with any hidden health issues.

I have had good results using digestive enzymes and probiotics for dogs with stomach issues (as long as the dog is healthy).

You may also want to re-evaluate your diet ingredients. Read this article on feeding a raw diet. It’s a work in progress but there is a lot of good information there.

I would also recommend these books, Natural Nutrition for Dogs & Cats and Raw Dog Food.

You can also go to our Feeding Dogs Page for a list of articles and books that will be helpful to you.

I hope this helps.
