My dog haven’t pooped since yesterday, should I be concerned? He’s eating with more appetite . Pet's info: Dog | Shih Tzu | Male | 5 years and 5 months old | 14 lbs

I wouldn't be too concerned just yet. Try adding a teaspoon of canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling) to Yoyo's food to see if that helps. Also make sure he has plenty of fresh cool water to drink. If he still hasn't pooped in another 24-48 hours, then I would be concerned and have him seen by a vet. Best of luck, I hope this helps!.
