I have a little rat terrier and she seems to be having a hard time going number two lately I think she might be constipated she likes to eat grass when she goes outside I think this might be to help her... I can't afford to take her to the vet right now so I was hopeing someone might have a answer for me

havent heard of using pumpkin but its worth a try. please dont give her a laxative in pill form or metamucil or ex lax or anything else we humans take. her little system is just too delicate for this and could cause her to have severe cramping. hope she has good results.

I wouldnt do anything, my dog was bound up for 3 days after surgery once, It all works it self out in the end...
The pumpkin thing is new to me,
I have heard a bit of bacon grease may hel;p, like a tablespoon.

i just went through the same thing. My 78 lb golden retriever hasnt gone for 2 days. i didnt have any creamed corn or pumpkin mix, which i've been reading has a great success rate. i gave her 2 Tablespoons dark KAro corn syrup and then fed her 15 minutes later...she finally pooped after eating! (I never thought i'd be so happy to see her go! lol)

Give her a couple of teaspoons of canned pumpkin. Should do the trick.

Mcdonald's was my first choice-
but I would go with the pumpkin

Milk also helps. I've had that problem with my dogs.
