My Maltese is constipated, in pain, trembling. Can I give her yogurt?

Sounds like Bella is having some GI trouble. If she is still eating and drinking, you can feed her a bland diet such as boiled chicken and rice to help with the diarrhea. If not, she should be seen by her veterinarian if she is very uncomfortable and having loose stool. It can be caused by interstitial inflammation, GI parasites, pancreatitis, etc. Your veterinarian will help guide you through the appropriate tests to help diagnose and treat Bella's signs. Good luck.

I would recommend taking Bella to veterinarian. They may be able to remove the feces or she may need an enema to help pass the stool. Intestinal parasites can occasionally cause constipation or if she is on a milk replacer this is sometimes the culprit, and the veterinarian may recommend a fecal analysis or other tests. If you have already tried to gently remove the stool and are unable I don't think there is much else you can safely do at home.

It sounds like Bella may be in pain. If she doesn't want to go upstairs, I suspect she may have pain in her back, hips, or hind legs. Rest her tonight, and have her seen by a vet in the morning. Please do not give her any human pain medications, as many are toxic to dogs and can be fatal if given. If she is in pain, thee vet can prescribe her safe pain medication.

If she is yelling in pain I highly recommend bringing her to a veterinarian so they can provide pain medication. Most over the counter medications are toxic to dogs. She needs a veterinarian to help diagnose her and treat her. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

It sounds as Papito is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

Poor Belle! It sounds like she is experiencing some pain and she could have a problem with her back or possibly abdominal pain. In order to diagnose, she needs to be examined by a vet to localize the source if the pain. She may need an anti-inflammatory and pain medications to help treat the problem. You should restrict her activity until she is seen by a vet; no running, jumping, etc. Hope she feels better soon!

I am sorry to hear about your pup! I would look at her rear end and check to be sure she doesn't have a matted area of hair/stool covering her anus and preventing her from pooping, as this can sometimes happen in long haired dogs. In mild cases of constipation, adding a teaspoon of canned pumpkin to their food to provide fiber can sometimes relieve constipation. If, however, she is lethargic, not eating, does not stop straining/cannot relax, or is vomiting then she needs veterinary care today. If she does have a fecal mat covering her anal area she will likely need to see the vet to have the area shaved and cleaned.
