This sounds a lot like our Duncan. As soon as we started transitioning to adult food his stomach issues really amped up. In the end, we found that 'Wellness Simple LID' in the salmon formula really worked for him. I had him on chicken, rice, and sweet potato for a week before we tried that particular. He was getting (and still gets) a probiotic (Proviable) twice a day at that time. Now, he only gets it once a day.
Good luck with journey, I feel your pain!
I know Karen will respond but we are just coming off a bout of HGE, it was awful, Madiba was also in the emergency clinic on IV drip. I think your dog is a golden doodle so you may not have the same concerns with drug interations as aussiedoodles but don't use Imodium. Karen recommended Wellness simple solutions and I have transitioned Madiba from a prescription diet on RoYal Canin, which is not great food but was great to help firm up Madiba's stool. Now Madiba is on the Wellness Simple Solutions limited ingredients diet and it is going super. The flavor choices are limited, we are on salmon potato wet food with a few of their kibbles thrown in. There are a few other flavors on Chewy.com, but if you have a membership at petsmart, their prices can't be beat. Madiba LOVES it, but it stinks. I see you are using pumpkin to firm things up we did that too, we used these little sachets made by Weruva, Madiba loved them and they really helped. I would stick to just home cooked chicken for now no hamburger. We were told that stress can play a big role as a catalyst for HGE so I'm examining that now with Madiba and focusing more on keeping a calm household. Since madiba is an aussiedoodle she is crazy active but we live in Miami and this summer heat is not healthy for anyone or any animal. Keep us posted.
