Serious helpful comments only please.

I have taken my dog to the vet. The doctor said he has an unusually large anus. This results in his poop becoming large balls that cannot pass through is rectum. This may have resulted from a previous bout of constipation. I have gone to a softer diet, and the vet pulled the large pieces out with an enema. He said there was no more hard just soft left, but today there is another one. He also ruled out blockages.

I have the dog on regular pumpkin (as needed), softer food, and exercise him daily. I also checked the correct amount of food he should intake as to reduce the larger poop. Can you offer any advice short of giving him more fiber, enema’s and help reduce the poop ball that seems to result no matter what I try for him? He simply cannot pass the poop this big and round, and the softer food has been well over a week. I have added water, but am not sure if it was dehydration. His skin is not dehydrated when tested by

The size of the anus doesn’t dictate the size of the waste…the quality of the food does.
If your dog has excessive waste (size and amount) it’s because of the poor quality of his food…a higher quality food contains less filler and produces less waste — consider increasing the quality of his food and he should be fine.

I love pumpkin seeds and eat them everyday! But, are they healthy to eat that frequently?

---

Yes definitely. Also flax and hemp seed.

Seeds in general are pretty healthy (provided they are not covered in salt, sugar, chemicals, etc).

But also remember they tend to be higher in fat. Now while there is evidence that eating the type of fat that is present in seeds and nuts is healthy, you should be aware of all the facts, and of how extra fat affects your diet before continuing your love affair with the seed.

G-unit haha it was in high school because I used to listen to a lot of the Rap genre music and walk around with 2 other guys who used to listen to it as well so we got the nickname which people would use individually against us.
