We have a 3 year old, 6 lb. Yorkie, Lovey - she is precious - we think we have the peeing down (although she still doesn't use pee pads and has an accident in the house about once every 2 weeks) but sometimes she doesn't poop for 2-3 days at a time. She eats alot of real meat (I try to get her to eat dry but she does it under duress) - should I be concerned? We also give her about 1 Dentastick a day. Can I use Colace or something like you can with cats? I had a cat that had constipation problems for years and I'm terrified to go through it again. Thanks for any advise!
