I have had my Yorkie for about 4 wks. She has had trouble with her bowel movements being hard. The vet told me to give her mineral oil. I am continuing to have to give this to her. I am not sure what food she was on, I changed her to pro plan and still having problems. I think I am going to try her on Imes food to see if it helps her. I was wondering if this is typical of a Yorkie or if it has something to do with her food. I hate giving her the mineral oil because I do not want her to become dependent on it.

Thanks.
