You can probably imagine that going without pooping for too long can have health risks for your dog. But how long is too long and what would be the normal pooping amount?
Intro
A dog’s normal pooping schedule should be once or twice a day. Constipation simply means your dog can’t poop on a regular basis as he should. Obstipation is a more severe kind of constipation and is very serious.
One day without pooping isn’t a huge cause for concern. It isn’t exactly normal, but also not an overwhelming medical emergency. My dog goes one day without pooping several times a month.
The entire reason your dog isn’t doing his business is probably that the business is too hard in the first place or he just can't find the perfect spot.
