Reasons for frequent bowel movements in Golden Retrievers:

1. Cold. If your golden retriever accidentally catches a cold, its body may experience some discomfort, including frequent defecation and soft feces.

2. Overfeeding. The digestive capacity of golden retrievers is limited. If the dog eats too much food every day, the dog’s digestive tract cannot digest and absorb it, which will increase the amount of feces, resulting in an increase in the frequency of bowel movements.

3. Unsuitable for food. Also, if the golden retriever's food is changed all at once, the golden retriever's intestines and stomach will not adapt, and soft stools and frequent defecation will occur.

4. There are parasites in the body. Too many parasites in a golden retriever can cause problems with its feces.

5. Acute enteritis. If your dog frequently defecates accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, or even blood in the stool, it is likely to be caused by acute enteritis.
