My dog has a UTI and isn't pooping. Is it the antibiotics or UTI?

Question

My dog has a UTI and she is taking antibiotics, but I noticed she hasn’t pooped since two days it’s that because of the infection or there’s something I can do to help her poop? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 6 years and 3 months old | 18 lbs

Poor Pooch! She could be having a little constipation. You can try to give her 1 teaspoon of canned pumpkin twice a day to see if this helps. If she starts having diarrhea or doesn't have a bowel movement in 24 hours, I would have your vet take another look at her. They will be able to give her something stronger to help her poop. I hope this helps!
