What to do if your puppy has difficulty defecating
What should I do if my puppy has difficulty defecating? If a puppy has difficulty defecating, the first thing to do is to feed the puppy food and water rich in plant fiber, and less offal and dry dog food; take the puppy out for exercise every day and increase the size of the puppy. The amount of exercise in dogs promotes gastrointestinal motility; if the puppy has serious defecation difficulties, it should seek medical treatment in time.
1. Control the puppy’s diet
If you find that your puppy has difficulty defecating, you should feed your puppy less animal liver, bones, and meat, and do not feed your puppy coarse, dry and hard dog food for a long time. Let the puppy drink more water every day and feed it food rich in plant fiber.
2. Take the puppy for exercise every day
Sufficient amount of exercise can make the puppy's gastrointestinal motility and make the puppy's defecation smoother. And owners should pay more attention to the weight of their dogs on weekdays. When they find that their dogs are getting heavier, they should increase their amount of exercise.
3. Get veterinary treatment in time
If these common methods still cannot alleviate the puppy’s difficulty in defecation, the owner should immediately send the puppy to the pet hospital so that the veterinarian can examine the cause of the puppy’s difficulty in defecation and provide professional treatment.
4. Feed probiotics regularly
Probiotics can adjust the gastrointestinal flora of puppies, increase beneficial bacteria and digestive enzymes, and make the puppy's gastrointestinal comfortable, which can alleviate the problem of difficult defecation.
