I touch his little butt and noticed that it was really hard, I believe this is why he can't get any poop to come out. A few days ago I wiped him with warm wet puppy wipes on his but until I got rid of all the hard poop he had around his butt. He was ok for a few days until it began happening again. The area wad extremely hard. Any suggestions on what I can do to help my little one??
