 Posted May 4, 2005 by Mort - A Girl, Interrupted I used to see lots of them when I was a kid - but very rarely now.
They are caused by a medical condition called Endocrine Pancreatic Insuffiency. The diagnosis and treatment has progressed, so most dogs are treated for it very easily (a capsule of pancreatic enzyme a day will sort it out!).

 Posted May 4, 2005 by Mort - A Girl, Interrupted However treatment is not cheap, and often people dont realise it is a problem and think their dog just does weird poos!
I remember going to school and seeing many about. I am surprised if I see any any around these days.
It is particularly common in Golden Retrievers and German Shepherd Dogs.
Some useless information for you

 Posted May 5, 2005 by Mina - Older on the outside, inside still 14 Buster does white poos if he's just scoffed a juicy bone, although I haven't seen it lately, but he doesn't seem to enjoy bones as much as he used to.

 Posted May 8, 2005 by CAZZ72 They come out white????!!!!
I thought they aged that way and that the reason we no longer saw them is 1)dog food was better or 2)people now pick up the poopies
Wow! At least I know now after all these years!
