go to the grocery store and get a can of plain pumpkin and give your pup a tablespoon of it. It is safe and it works.

If you really think he is constipated, put some oil with his food. Any edible oil should do. I wouldn't use castor oil though, that would be a bit harsh.
Try about a tablespoon full to begin with as this is a small dog. If you don't have any oil about you could try sardines or tuna in oil - it will make his breath stink though.

Here's a site with some otc meds that most otherwise healthy dogs can take. It gives the dosage by weight.

try taking a warm wet washcloth and wiping his / her "behind" with it. When the pup was with their mother that is how the mother would stimulate a bowl movement for their young.

Yea, pumpkin, just make sure it is only pumpkin and not the spiced kind.
