 Please Help!! Romeo is having bathroom problems!!
First of all, I'm sorry that this is so gross and graphic, but your help is very much appreciated. Romeo went outside a little while ago and was playing. Normally he uses the bathroom and then comes right back inside. After he had been out for a about 15 minutes he came back in and immediately squatted on the pad to poop. When he didn't go I took him back out thinking that he would go outside. Well, he hunched his back and got in the pooping position and nothing happened. He layed his little head on my foot and continued to try to go, but nothing. He then started walking around in the poop position. Still nothing. My fiance put on gloves and got warm, wet paper towels and tried to help him go. It appeared that he had some poop stuck halfway in and halfway out. (sorry) After he got it out we thought he was done, but he acts like he is still trying to go! He is just laying around. When we were trying to "clean up his booty" we noticed some blood on the paper towel. Is this just from him trying so hard to go? What can this be and what do you suggest we do? The next step is a hot bath to squirt some water on his butt. Again, I apologize, but we don't know what to do! Thank you all so much for your help in advance!
