It sounds as Pumkin 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 Urgently, she will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection she will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better. if the vet thinks it is more serious she will need a blood test and possibly an ultrasound in order to find out what is wrong. If money is an issue please contact a dog charity in your area of living, they can help with costs of treatment in many cases. Many vets also have payment plans, and there is also a credit company that will land you money toward vet bills ( https://www.carecredit.com/vetmed/) .

That doesn't appear to be a tick. It looks like it could be a tiny mass on or under the skin. Keep an eye on it for any rapid change or growth, redness or discomfort. Continue to offer food in small, frequent amounts. Mix in the pumpkin (NOT pie filling) as you've been doing. As long as he is behaving normally and the stool is firming up, you can monitor him at home. If the diarrhea persists or the bump changes then have him seen by your veterinarian.

She is likely going to have some major GI upset, especially if the treats contained a lot of fiber (which pumpkin does). Picking up her regular food and offering a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice may help with minor digestive upset and get her feeling better. If she doesn't pass stool, continues vomiting, seems very painful, has blood in her stool or vomit, or her stomach/abdomen look very bloated, painful or she is in distress, then it could indicate something more serious ongoing which should be seen ASAP by a vet.

I would try some of the following tactics to help Chloe, and by pass the baby food. There isn't anything wrong with it, I just do not believe it will be as much help as the below approaches; Pumpkin is high in water content and an excellent source of fiber. Fresh steamed or baked pumpkin can be pureed and added to meals Increased water intake Probiotics- www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=24772 Increased excercise https://www.petcoach.co/article/best-home-made-remedies-for-your-constipated-pet/

I'm sorry Bella isn't doing well! Yes, licking her back end can be a sign something is wrong, such as impacted or infected anal sacs. Those could be preventing her from passing feces. Certainly you can try adding a tablespoon of canned pumpkin puree to see if that helps, but if she still hasn't passed feces by Monday morning, I would take her into the vet. I hope this helps!
