The frequency of dog defecation can reflect its health. Under normal conditions, healthy dogs usually defecate 2 to 3 times a day. If the dog does not defecate for a day, the pet owner should pay attention. Consider whether the food given to it is too dry and adjust immediately. If the intestinal oil cannot be discharged successfully for two or three days, it means that the dog is likely to have severe constipation. It should be taken as soon as possible to effectively assist the dog in dealing with this problem.
1. Adjust your diet and pay more attention to drinking water
Dogs with excessive dry and lack of moisture and dietary fiber are more likely to suffer from severe constipation. When you find that the dog often has difficulty defecation and the stool that is dry and unformed, the pet owner should also pay attention to adjusting its diet structure and give the dog some ingredients to moisten the intestines and laxatives.
It is proposed to terminate feeding dry dog food within this period and change it to soft food with light taste and easy to digest, such as vegetable porridge, pumpkin and millet porridge, millet soup, etc. The dog should also eat more convenient vegetables and fruits to increase its daily water consumption, and to install a professional water feeder at home. The fresh and fluid water resources can attract dogs to eat, and the abundant water content in the body is also beneficial to excrete intestinal oil.
2. Feed the dog with probiotic powder
If the dog often suffers from severe constipation or vomiting, it is likely that it is caused by irregular diet and poor gastrointestinal digestion. For this situation, the pet owner should ensure regular feeding and appropriate feeding, and do not have to let the dog eat too much at once and too fast. Usually, you can feed some dog probiotic powder after the meal. For example, pour some Wangsutong into a small plate and let it lick it gradually to help it fill the probiotics of the gastrointestinal tract and increase intestinal peristalsis. It can be taken with some honey lemonade or yogurt, which will help defecate better.
3. Maintain moderate exercise
Dogs who do not exercise for a long time or are obese in humans are more likely to suffer from severe constipation. Usually, there is no need to feed the dog just without paying attention to improving its physical condition. Moderate exercise can help the dog exercise and enhance its resistance. You can take the dog to stroll after a meal every day to help it digest. You can play and exercise with the dog in your spare time, helping it consume unnecessary calories and body fat, which is beneficial to prevent serious constipation and obesity.
