Question I have 10 day old puppy. His stomach is very distended and I haven't seen the pup have a bowel movement all day. What can I give him?
Answer YOu can just use more concentrated milk to help relieve him. Also, you can mimic the mother by taking a cotton ball and soaking it with warm water and then rub the belly lightly. That will simulate the mother licking the puppy and that stimulates the bowels to act.
