Would also try a raw egg, complete with shell somtimes if you like to give a little extra to his complete food.
Thanks for the info Thordell. I didn't know you could give dogs an egg complete with shell
He might not be constipated it might have just been a one-off. I will eagerly await his next 'poo' - well maybe 'eagerly is not the right word here

...on their coats... Wake up woman, I meant dinner - not even opened the bottle, honest

I might try him with the chicken and corn after this bag, as he has chicken sprinkled over his food.
Hi Helena, Is the brine one the salty water one? Yes Benji seems to prefer the chicken and corn one to the salmon and potato one, although that might be cos he is sick of having the same old thing everyday
It must be awful to be a dog and have the same food every day mustn't it. The chicken and corn one is cheaper than the Salmon and potato one. The salmon and potato is £7.99 a bag at pets at home and the chicken and corn one they are doing on special offer for £4.99 or something like that.
