My dog is,constipated! What can I give her?? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | spayed | 8 years and 7 months old | 70 lbs

If your dog is truly constipated you can try adding a couple of tablespoons of canned pumpkin to her meals and see if that helps get things moving. However, be advised that oftentimes owners think their dog is constipsted when in reality it is having diarrhea which makes it look like the dog is straining. If you have any question as to whether this is constipation or not I would recommend taking Lilly in to be checked out by your vet. I hope this helps.
