What are the causes of constipation in dogs? The dog’s diet is unreasonable. Parents feed dry, hard and indigestible food for a long time, and eat less fruits and vegetables; the dog lies still and lacks exercise for a long time, which causes the dog to overdo it. Obesity can lead to constipation; when a dog enters a new environment, it will develop a stress response, which may cause constipation.
1. The dog’s feeding is unreasonable: parents feed dry, hard, indigestible food for a long time, the dog usually drinks very little water, and does not eat much fruits and vegetables.
2. Dogs lack exercise for a long time, resulting in slow walking, unresponsiveness, poor immunity, excessive body fat, and constipation.
3. Dogs don’t like to drink water, and getting angry can also cause constipation.
4. It may be a stress reaction caused by the inability to adapt to a new environment. The stress reaction may cause constipation in dogs.
5. Although dogs are very familiar with the environment, they can easily cause constipation if they are disturbed during defecation. (For example, the sound of firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, or always meeting other dogs when preparing to poop);
6. When dogs get older (dogs become old when they are over 8 or 9 years old), their gastrointestinal digestion is not good, leading to constipation.
