My puppy hasn't pooped in 36 hours and won't eat. What's wrong?

Question

Hello, my 14 week old pup hasn't pooped in about 36 hours and doesn't seem too interested in eating his food. He is playing, drinking water, and walking/running fine. I don't think he ate anything he shouldn't have but he is a puppy so he might have picked something up he shouldn't have. Thank you. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | unneutered

he can be constipated or be having diarrhea.l as both can cause straining. You can try feeding boiled chicken and rice because it is easy to digest and can help with the stool. If you notice vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy or he stops eating all together then I would recommend taking him to the vet for testing for a foreign body, parvo or just an upset something from eating something
