Guest Panterka Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Yea all landsharks eat toddlers..Just one day they "TURN".. No, no, that's a myth. They don't turn - they are like that from birth ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvabull Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 Who would've thought Chopper's bowel movements would be so entertaining ;) Update: Took him to the park, he had a little run around, had a wee but no poo Chopper 1 Poo 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shekhina Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Oh dear, I hope he's passed it all by the morning I had a similar problem with Jaida...someone must have thrown heaps of bones over my back fence at the old place, and Jaida was quick as lightening at scoffing everything in her sight down and so she ended up VERY constipated ;) She had the cruddy supermarket canned food and parrafin oil and it passed. Poor girl, she was so uncomfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvabull Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 I'll see how he goes through the night. If it's no good then I'll get the chemist stuff tomorrow and see how that goes I can't believe I'm actually wanting to see a big brown puddle in the yard ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Update: Took him to the park, he had a little run around, had a wee but no poo Chopper 1 Poo 0 Perhaps you should push the wheelie bin along with you when you go out next? I can't stand walking along with a bag of warm poo in my hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvabull Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 Thanks for the tip Clyde but tonight is rubbish night so I'd be happy to chuck it in someone else's bin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrie Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 (edited) You might want to order one of these little inventions and get it sent emergency, express post. LINK Probably best to find out if they have a XXLARGE size titanium reinforced bag. ETA - Or you could give these guys a call.

poodlefan Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) THERE WAS BROWN PUDDLES!!!!! ;)In the loungeroom ;) Well at least he's not constipated anymore. Doesn't he have access outside at night? See Top Breeders did recommend Pal.. as a laxative. ;) Edited April 22, 2008 by poodlefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

persephone Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Brown puddles ... is relatively good... just make sure his poo is 'normal' over the next day or so!!! Often ,even with a solid mass of bone or whatever stuck..liquid faeces can still get past. When I was working at the vets..we had dogs come in "with diarrhoea"...whereas they were actually very constipated...was only liquid passing..solids were still stuck ;) You may want to give him some metamucil or psyllium whenever he has a lot of bone...that , and heaps to drink.

gareth Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 brown puddles don't sound so good to me. It means faecal overload. There is probably a huge mass of dry stuff still in there and the fluid is leaking around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip. I'm still keeping my eye on him. He's still sleeping at the moment so we'll see what happens later ;) ETA: I didn't actually see what came out in the loungeroom. All I noticed was the floor was mopped and the windows were wide open. Can't find out till later. Edited April 22, 2008 by luvabull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I noticed was the floor was mopped and the windows were wide open. Can't find out till later. A bulky bland diet for a couple of days would be warranted. Cooked chicken and rice or veggies is always good. I'd lay off the marrow bones and feed him smaller bones with more meat on them - they won't clog him up as much.

poodlefan Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Yup, no more Marrowbones ;) Don't forget to report in when the eagle has landed. ;) If he hasn't had a normal motion by tomorrow, I'd be taking him to the vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
