My Hazel has been doing VERY well with going on her puppy pads and outside near the front door. But this morning when she tried going #2 on her puppy pad she was literally pushing for 5-10 minutes . . . it was breaking my heart

!!! i just gave her hard dog food yesterday, so i'm thinking maybe this is why her stool was a litter drier this morning. She drinks PLENTY of water

. Hazel's daddy suggested that we give her a teaspoon of milk . . . should i? But she did get it out. the tip of it was hard, and the end was softer as usual, so should i still bother giving her the milk, or should i wait to see what happens the next time she goes ? ? ?
