My Dog Can't Poop. What Can I Do Or Give Her So She Can? I Think She Is In Pain.

My dog seems to be ill. But I can't even tough her without her sitting me. She hides under the table and she hasn't eaten or drank water. I think she ate something bad but I'm not sure? I don't know what to do. Please help me!

    This dog needs to be examined by a veterinarian.  There are many reasons why dogs have abdominal pain.  Constipation is possible but much more common in cats.  Foreign body obstructions are common in dogs.  This happens when dogs eat things like socks, toys, or rocks and they become stuck in the intestines.  Pancreatitis--often caused by eating a high fat meal or getting in to the garbage--is another fairly common cause of abdominal pain.
    When dogs stop drinking they become dehydrated which makes them feel worse.  
    Your veterinarian will do a thorough exam, assess pain, take x-rays, and do blood work if appropriate.

      My dog had the same problem about a year ago! You need to take him to the vet IMMEDIATELY... I don't want to scare you but it's so urgent that your little buddy could die... At least, that was my experience... It's better to be safe then sorry!

          Try to feed her some cod liver oil. Not to much or she my poo herself to death- just a teaspoon or two depending on her size.
