Carol,
The skin is fat, and that is why it causes loose stools. It doesn't
contain the same nutritional values of organs. It is indeed separate,
leave that skin on! If you notice loose stools, gradually reduce the
amount until you find a happy medium. My dog's diet is awfully fatty
but she has normal stools. I actually tear off some fat from poultry
since I feed extremely fatty lamb and pork ribs and brisket.
