Offer a bland diet (plain white rice and boiled boneless /skinless chicken breasts) in small, frequent amounts. Add 1 teaspoon of plain canned pumpkin (NOT pie filling) per 10 pounds body weight to the meals once or twice daily. Keep water available at all times. It can be mixed in equal parts with unflavored PediaLyte. Monitor for lethargy, decreased appetite, vomiting or abdominal pain. See your veterinarian if any of these symptoms develop or if he does not begin defecating more in the next 24 hours on a bland diet.
