Depending on whatâs causing your dogâs constipation, your vet may recommend one or several of the following treatments: A stool softener or other laxative agent. Medication to increase the contractile strength of the large intestine. Adding fiber to your dogâs diet with canned pumpkin, wheat bran or a product such as Metamucil. A veterinarian-prescribed, high-fiber diet. An increase in exercise.
Supplements: There are natural supplements available that will aid in curing a dogâs constipation. They usually contain additives such as acidophilus, folic acid, and vegetable enzymes. Check with your vet for recommendations. 3. Laxatives: If your vet advises it, a mild laxative may do the trick. Of course the amount will depend on the size and weight of your dog. 4. Enema: Your vet will tell you if this is an option he wants to pursue. 5. Milk of Magnesia: A small amount of Milk of Magnesia may be all that he needs but again, check with your vet first! 6. Bran (wheat & oat): Bran works as a preventative (much like pumpkin), when added to your dogâs food regularly.
