Chili's hasn't pooped all day. His stomach is getting tight and I wonder what is wrong. He usually goes 2 or 3 times a day. What should I do?

Hi! Here are some home remedy for your problem. Just pick one that will be easy for you.
1. Put a little water on his dry food or if you're giving her wet food add 1 teaspoon of bran to every 6 ounces of your wet food.
2. Mix mineral oil in the dog food.( 1 teaspoon for every 10 lbs of your dog's body weight )
Remember to make sure your dog is drinking enough water. I am not a vet so if your dog is still constipated and showing signs like vomiting, blood in the stool, decreased or lost of appetite and lethargic visit your vet immediately. Hope your dog feels better...

Well, the answer is pretty simple. He's constipated most likely. Of course I'm not a proffessional, but I'm pretty sure there's nothing more to it. I suggest you follow Reuben Reyes advice for the home remedies. Good Luck, Gabriella
