New puppy wont poop I have had my new yorkie for a week almost and he has yet to use the bathroom except to pee. he eats well and drinks plenty of water but I am slightly worried. Anyone have any idea what may be wrong? |
He needs to be seen by a vet. That is too long to go without pooping. He might have an obstruction. Are you sure he isnt going then eating it? |
For a WEEK he hasn't pooped? If yes, GO TO THE VET asap!!!!!!!!!! There could be a number of things wrong - but this would head into emergency visit territory in my mind. Do keep us updated! Have you talked to the breeder about it? What are you feeding? |
teddy I took him to the vet and they said just let walk around a bit and that he seemed perfectly healthy. He get puppy wet food he is only 6 weeks...well almost 7 now and hardly has any or no teeth. |
I would take him to another vet. Something is wrong with him to not have pooped for this long. Puppies poop several times a day |
wow ..a week is a long time! Maybe he goes when you are not around and then eat it. yorkies are known to eat their own poop..i know mine does when she goes and i am not around to clean it up right away. |
I didn't realize he might be eating it but i hardly let him out of my sight. He is my first one and only dog so he has become my baby. Husband is almost jealous! So I don't think he might have been eating it but I will take him to another vet. |
Please take him to another vet immediately. If he is not eating it his poop and he is eating food there is a major problem in my opinion. |
my puppy pooped I called a vet up and they suggested pumpkin filling so I went to the store to pick it up and he did his buisness almost instantly. It was runny and not as much as he should have but I'll keep feeding it to him for the next day or two. |
He is only 6 weeks, thats pretty young, but a week with no poop is not good, when they are younger they seen to poop even more, mine go at least 3x a day, I hope you see another vet and soon, good luck to you and welcome to yt:) |
I would definately get him to a vet... |
I hope your pup is going potty. He is so very young, and the pumpkin filling was not the ready made filling with sugar, etc.? Take care and look forward to another post from you. Warmly, Deborah |
nope it was the plain stuff trust i know I tried it to see what it taste like before i gave him any:eek: but now he is goin every hour or so (enough to where his daddy wont let him out of the box now afraid for his carpet) but hes moving around more and i'm quit happy! Thank you all for your tips though! |
Glad to hear the good news and my suggestion would be to stop the pumpkin (you are probably at that point already). |
yea actually i never had to give him anymore after the first time he ate it. that stuff really works. |
