I am so worried cause the vet didn't take this more serious. I am taking him for second oppinion Monday. I will do any thing to help him. I have been keeping up with enema's to make sure he goes, but I don't think that is good either. I really appreciate all the feedback on this. He is my first Yorkie baby, and I am so deeply in love with him, don't know how I can do without him.

I am so glad
you're getting a 2nd opinion - what a great Mama you are! I too am
very surprised that your vet isn't taking this more seriously, that's very odd. I hope you get more answers and guidance with this other vet.
Another thing I'll throw out there is to put him on a temporary (like 2wks or so) hypoallergenic diet - like fish, potatoes, greens - to rest his system. Of course, it's really more important at this point to find out if something is medically wrong - especially since this *just* happened suddenly, in the last 3 weeks. But just keep the diet thing in mind for down the road, if needed.
Please keep us posted and I hope he feels better soon!
