My 1-month-old puppies are weak and constipated. What to do?

Poor Baby Girl! Constipation can be common in puppies, and I recommend diluting the puppy milk and feeding her more frequently in smaller amounts. If this doesn't help and she is still constipated in 24-48 hours, then I would take her into the vet for treatment. Please do not give her a human enema, they contain ingredients that can be toxic to puppies.

Make sure you are simulating her to poop. Puppies this young cannot defecate without this. (Rub the anus gently for 10-20 seconds with a warm wet cloth/paper towel.) This needs to be done before or after every feeding (about every 2 hours). If that is not working within 8 hours, you need to see a vet. Do NOT attempt an enema on a puppy this small. Also make sure you’re feeding the puppy mild replacer EXACTLY as directed on the can. Diluting it or feeding too little can cause problems. Hope this helps and best of luck to you and Topani!

It sounds like you are doing all the right things. However, it is definitely not normal for puppies to go this long without defecting. I recommend you have them evaluated by your veterinarian right away.

Young puppies can become constipated with milk replacer. I would recommend making an appointment with a veterinarian for an examination. They may give an enema if Marvel seems constipated, and they can also show you he proper way to stimulate him to urinate or defecate. At two weeks old he may also need a deworming.

I recommend taking diamond to a veterinarian due to her young age. It is possible diet or parasites are causing the constipation and painful rectum. Unfortunately their are not great ways to fix this without a veterinarians help.

It sounds as Maya 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 her to the vet the first chance you get, she will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection she will need an antibiotic course and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

Hydration and exercise. Get him to drink some water or a water/unflavored PediaLyte mix. Walk him around the house or play for 20-30 minutes. You can also try stimulating elimination by using a warm, wet washcloth and circle the rectum gently. If he doesn't defecate, see your veterinarian.
