I came here through Google I was looking for a little help with my yorkie. And I'm not sure how to post a question. It 4:47 am. I can't sleep because I'm worried about our baby Gizmo. She is 10 years old and dose not act like it. She is happy and playful but sometimes a little grumpy. I can relate to her. LOL she has not pooped today. and has been ok no pain barking at people at the door. but just acted a little different, I took her out for her walk 4 times today. But she only peed, she ate and drank water. Just only no poop.and looks a little uncomfortable.but no Pain thank God! She usually has one or two a day there has been no changes in her food or eating Pattern.. Should I be worried? I really can't aford a emergency trip to the vet.. But. If I have to I Guess I well. I hope you can help me help her.
I hope I did this right
Thanks |
One day of missed pooping is probably nothing to worry about, so long as the dog is not in pain or throwing up. If it continues for another day or two, then I'd call the vet for advice. They'll tell you if she needs to be taken in to be seen. In the meantime, try feeding a tablespoon of canned pumpkin. That acts as a gentle laxative.
