Diarhea caused by sudden food change?

That's terrific for them both. It doesn't seem to matter if they don't like veggies, they love the pumpkin. Emma has even tried to help herself to the pumpkin pie in the fridge, and Liam tried to help himself to the baked squash on the table at Christmas.
 
Had an alarming couple of days, though, after I fed her the pumpkin. For about three days, her poo was completely dry and looked like compacted cigarette ashes. Touching it, it would fall completely into dust. Never seen anything like that in my life. She didn't seem constipated or anything - she acted completely normal. Just this.....this...STUFF came out. She's fine now, but that cigarette ash poo threw me for a loop!
 
Completely normal. They dry up and turn into dust In a few days. And they don't stick to your shoes when you step on them. It's a win all around!
 
I was super-worried that she might have gotten seriously dehydrated or something. I've just never seen dog poo (and I've seen a lot more than my fair share) that would just disintegrate five minutes after it was poo-ed.

Weirded the hubs out, too. He was more alarmed than I was - he' is still on the level of a pre-novice dog person and his experience is naturally somewhat limited.

I fed Neechee green beans and carrots at least one meal a day, and never did this happen to him. His poos never seemed any different than when he was on nothing but a high-quality kibble.
