Why does my dog not go to the bathroom after diarrhea?
Sometimes a dog will not “go” for 24 – 48 hours after anti-diarrheal medications have been started. Think of it like this: the system was essentially empty due to the diarrhea, and if the medication is effective, it will slow down the transit time of food through the GI tract and it will take a couple of days for him to actually need to poop again.
How long does it take for diarrhea to stop in dogs?
How long does it take for a dog to stop having bloody diarrhea from a parasite after taking Metronidazole. Usually it takes up to 5 days for the bloody diarrhea to stop, in severe cases it can take longer.
What should I do if my dog hasn’t Pooped in two days?
Vet put him on antibiotics and he hasn’t pooped since. I’m worried something is wrong. If he has been eating, this should be a concern and you should get him rechecked to rule out an obstruction. If he is still refusing food, he may require further treatment. Please arrange a recheck as soon as possible. Was this answer helpful?
