Okay as some of You know My 3 year old Yorkie Mitsi was Spayed last Thursday. She was fine until about 3 days later, She was straining to poop and when She finally did it was hard. So My vet called Me in antibiotics and a laxative for Her. (SHES NOT GONE IN 3 DAYS EXCEPT FOR ONE OR 2 TINY DROPS) Shes acting lazy and sick but eating well. I gave Her 1 dose 8 hours ago and just gave Her another but so far no poopy. I feel so helpless, Shes not Herself and seems to tired to play, I know Shes worn out from being sick and being hauled off to the vet everyday. Has anyone experienced this before? Also If anyone wants to know The laxative is a green slimy liquid She has to swallow every 8 hours. Thanks for reading snd all the support.
