Allergic Reaction, Constipation & Possible Bladder Problem

kristenhp · Oct 14, 2013

I am all over this forum tonight. Nola, our one year old Frenchie, has been chewing/licking at one paw all day. It appears red and maybe swollen (we just got her Wednesday and have never owned a bulldog before). Then, I noticed her lips and inside her ears look red, too. I'm thinking maybe it's an allergic reaction to the baby wipes I use to clean her face, eyes, paws, ears, etc. I use Target brand sensitive.

She is also constipated. She hasn't pooped since yesterday AM and seemed to have a lot of trouble doing so. Also, she has been peeing only tiny amounts at a time. AND IN THE HOUSE. Even after she's been out!

It's been less than a week and I've already ruined her!!!!!!!!!! I'm so upset and worried and not sure of what to do.

She will be fine, but I think a food change need to happen soon, and I mentioned on your other post that plain pumpkin will help with the constipation.

The constipation is better. I gave pumpkin last night and today and she's had healthy bowel movements today. But, she's definitely got some yeast or something on her paws. Taking her to vet in the AM. Waiting on Fromm food but will have to slowly switch it. Thank you

It's like having another baby in the house and so worth it!

All will settle in.... she needs time to adjust to the new home and family

It is a learning process & you guys will do fine, I have faith in you!!! It is very common to do a refresher course in housebreaking. Everything is new & her schedule is out of sorts. Just be consistent.
