| Maybe call the vet to see if you need to take your yorkie to see him. My vet have told me to give a little bit of mineral oil and that always help, I'm sure that someone here have other suggestions. You can go on health section and search for constipations too. Hope your baby feel better |

| I'm sorry i am not really sure. We have never had this problem before. How long has it been since he has gone potty? Can you tell if it is hurting him? |

| A little canned pumpkin (not the pie filling) can help, but I'd be very worried since he is so young. I would call your vet first thing in the morning and see if they want you to bring him in. |

| I also recommend canned pumpkin for tonight. I don't know how long he's been constipated but if it's been a couple days then you should definitely get him to the vet tomorrow. One thing I'd be concerned about (especially with a puppy..they like to chew and eat everything) is an intestinal blockage.
