we just got this 3yo yorkie sat. we are crate training her and she is doing really well on the pee part. on monday she pooped in her crate and i think it was running not sure because she walked in it ect (yea a big mess lol) anyway she has not pooped since then and this is thursday so it has been 3 days since she has pooped i know she only weighs 4 lbs but is this ok? i am sure when it happened mon it was because of being a new place and all but she has really taken to us now and is at home she plays and loves on us and wags her tail now. but she hardly eats anything just a few bites at a time (i figure thats all her stomach will hold) but i am worried about the poop thing and she was just at the vet before i got her because she was fixed so i hate to take her just for him to say its ok that little dogs sometimes dont poop that much... any thoughts or ideas???? should i be worried or not?

she did just get fixed 2 wks ago could something they gave her during surgery make her constipated?

I would be a bit worried if my dog doesn't go at least once a day. Could she be going outside somewhere hidden perhaps? Or is she a completely inside dog.
It may be tough on her, but if she doesn't expel something in the next day or so I would consult a vet.
