Are you sure he's constipated? He may just have an irritated bowel. Make sure that there is no obstruction at the anus such as matted hair or old poo. Take a thermometer that is well lubricated and gently insert it about 1/2 inch. Do not force if there is resistance. If there is no poo on the thermometer most likely puppy is just irritated. If he is constipated the thermometer can loosen things up and stimulate a bowel movement.
