He hasn't pooped yet this evening either.

He turned down his "treat" (it's a supplement for his luxating patellas), but did eat some chicken out of my hand. I'm going to put his usual food in his bowl tonight without the new and see what happens.

I'll keep everyone posted!
Just be sure he is hydrated. You can do that by touching his gums to see if they are wet to the touch. If sticky, he may be dehydrated. You can also pull up the skin on his back to see if it goes back in place quickly. Dehydration is a reason to go to a vet ASAP!
