Yorkies can indeed be given an enema but that is a bit difficult. My suggestion would be some canned pumpkin AND the small half of an infant suppository with LOTS of lubrication..I would suggest Vaseline instead of a water based lubricant. If he has been eating well he wil become impacted and that can mean a vet visit and a very uncomfortable boy. The large amt of lubricant is important so the hard stools will slide out. Oh, mercy, that is graphic but I know of no other way to say it...hope I don't gross anyone out..
