| High Fiber Diet, Help Needed My puppy is having issues going to the bathroom, its been taking him a while for it to pass through and he struggles on the pad. My vet has suggested feeding him food with more fiber. Any suggestions? I currently feed him wellness puppy dry food and wellness lamb& sweet pot. wet food. Any wellness with more fiber?

| my suggestion would be to give him pure canned pumpkin. It is a MIRACLE worker- should clear things up in no time. Make sure it is NOT spiced but PURE. Give him 1-2 tsps and you should see a change in a few days! |

| the pumpkin will help and safe so you can use that with each meal a little bit - pumpkin is fiber - i get organic canned from whole foods put it in little baggies and put in freezer - you can put in ice cube tray and freeze as well and then put in baggie |

| The wellness core reduced fat has a lot of fiber in it, 8.5 %. You can also try Fruitables Pumpkin & Cinnamon Dry Food Mixer. It worked miracles for some of our customers. |
