Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA & IMHA) - Constipation
| Sunny is constipated since I changed his diet to chicken and rice. Any suggestions? He has really taken a turn for the worse this week. He is losing muscle quickly. I guess the drugs are getting to him. Thanks! Leslie |

| Leslie, Organic canned pumpkin, not the kind that you use for baking, but the raw version of it. It is suppose to help with constipation and/or diaharra Sorry Sonny is not feeling good this week and yes unfortunately the drugs to wear them down. Linda |

| Yes, I agree with Linda that pumpkin will do the trick. I have had to use it on my other dogs (not my AIHA dog) in the past and it works like a charm. Good luck to you! deb and Duck |

| Thanks Linda and Debbie, How much pumpkin should I give him? He weighs 50 lbs. I don't want to overdo it and give him diarrhea. |

| And does the canned pumpkin work for the softie/diarhea poops too? Tiggs is having the opposite problem...I'd love it if the canned pumpkin worked both ways! Hope Sunny's tummy feels better soon. |

| tylosin powder really helps for dogs that have runny stools... ive had sway on it since last year. also, might want to look into forti-flora made by purina, to add to sunny's food... that will also help |
