What my Pet First Aid Book Says about CONSTIPATION

[BabyFidgette]

I bought a Pet First Aid book by the American Red Cross at the Jersey Pet Expo last week (the best $5 I ever spent)!!! I scanned some info for everyone in case your furbaby suffers from any specific ailment. In this case: constipation. If there is "first aid" jargon you don't understand i.e. 'how to check capillary refill,' just ask me.

Oh, the picture below is very small. All you have to do is copy, and paste in Microsoft Word and enlarge it. Then you can read it. I hope

Just copy and paste it into Microsoft Word. Then enlarge the picture. Do you have Microsoft Word?

Click on the picture first. Go onto the picture, and right click, and choose Copy. Then paste into Word. Let me know if it's still not working.

My Jazzy didn't poop at all yesterday. My sister did puppysit her yesterday at her house because we were away for the day but i thought she would have at least pooped over night. She didn't. So this morning I mixed her kibble with some soft food and she dived right in. I hope she poops really soon if not i guess i'll have to add some fiber and lawd knows I don't know what fiber to add. She just went to the vet on Friday an di just do not have the funds to pay another bill again.

I've tried this and recommended it to someone on YT and it worked: if you mix a little vegetable oil with her water, the poop should slide out.
