Will do, thanks very much!

Traci, took her back in today for her first checkup. They gave her an enema and now she is going on her own, whew! Eating, drinking and doing just fine - now it's time for her to build her confidence, it's gonna take a while.

She seems to be on the road to recovery. Thanks for everything. I have my fingers crosses and I'm hoping for the best for her.

Regards, Tony

I'm sure she will be just fine! She sounds like a survivor Give her a nose rub from me

I suspect she hasn't eaten enough to produce a stool normally, or that there was a small amount of fecal material in her colon at the time of surgery, hence the constipation.

You can continue using the Laxatone (or Petromalt) once a day for a few days, until her eating habits and bowel function return to normal. Do followup with your vet if she has another incident.
