Dog / Dachshunds - Answered 1283 days ago
My dog always trembles when he doesn't have an appetite in the morning - when he is hungry he'll willingly eat on his own. The trembling subsides after a while when I pick him up, but he still won't eat. His feces are usually hard and come out in little balls, or are a small amount. Sometimes he will also have a bloated stomach if the symptoms continue for several days. Our vet gave us probiotics the other day, but my dog's feces are still sometimes hard or sometimes a little soft. I hope he just wants attention... For pet food, I give him a mixture of Kia Ora and weight control food from Supreme, in the morning. I also give him bits of chicken breasts, yogurt, and natto. At night I give him soup with chicken breasts, salmon, and vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, carrots, broccoli, and radish. I give home soup because he doesn't drink much water during the day.

You can use any of these laxatives to relieve constipation which is obviously one of the problem with your pet; Canned Pumpkin: Small dogs can get 1 teaspoon mixed in with each meal. Larger dogs can handle up to a tablespoon or so. ... Psyllium (e.g., unflavored Metamucil): Try giving one-half teaspoon per 10 pounds of body weight mixed with a meal once daily to start. You can also give milk of magnesia to your pet. Best Regards
