Flaves Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Have you changed her diet in teh last couple of days? Or wormed her? I had this problem with Mitchi when i first got her. I wormed her an dthen she was trying for a couple of days, i took her to the vet an dshe pooed at the vets! Give them a call and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poodle wrangler Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Apparently a cheap can of dog food (amount suitable for your size of pup) will do the trick. IF that's the problem. Pups need worming fortnightly (sorry if telling you stuff u already know). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FancyCannon Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 Thanks so much for your help. I have and appointment with the vets today. She did have one last night after I gave her a lil karo in her water, but she seem to have gotten hemorrhoids. Poor baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallmatt1 Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 try a quarter to half a teaspoon of parrafin oil that will do the trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pesh Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Yep, parrafin. Gradually add fruit (no stones or seeds) and veges to the diet. Hope all has gone well at the vets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LENI Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 i really would take any risks at that age.. try some parafin and if that fails head straight to your vet. You dont want her to strain to much. good luck.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
