Pumpkin, just make sure it is not the spiced type. Lots of fiber and will loosen things up pretty quickly.

Make sure first it's not caused from blockage - requires a visit to the vet.
For true constipation: Give your dog 1/4 to 1 tsp of magnesium citrate powder dissolved in some very hot water. Very large dogs can have 2 tsp. After it dissolves you can add a little cooler water so it is easy to drink. It dissolves beautifully and quickly. You can also syringe feed the magnesium citrate to your pet if need be. The magnesium can be given 2 or 3 times the first day.

Be careful with this one. Might not be constipation, may be a blockage. It's not common for dogs to suffer from constipation. I'd take him to a vet to be sure.
If you try and give him something you may just push the blockage further into the intestine or cause twisting. Both could be fatal.

My mom's dog died from a blockage in the intestines. It was really sad because my mom didn't realize and the dog died in her arms. Even if it is just constipation, it's better to take to vet than assume it is something easily treatable. If it is something worse than that, you might be glad you took it to the vet. I hope it's alright.

take him to the vet. It could be something serious like an intestinal blockage or impaction. Or he may just need a laxative and diet change.
