Constipation in dogs usually improves with diet and routine changes — rotate the kibble, mix in plain yogurt, keep water and vegetables available, offer probiotics and a little honey water, and ensure daily exercise.

Autumn Dog Care: Nutrition, Immunity, and Energy
As autumn cools, dogs grow their winter coat and need more coat-building nutrients — protein, fatty acids, B vitamins. Boost immunity with water and vitamins, and add energy-rich food (but not too much) to prep for winter.
Why Is Your Dog Panting Rapidly with a Trembling Belly?
Rapid breathing with a shaking belly can be normal — after exercise, in heat, or from excitement — or a sign of illness such as a respiratory infection, pneumonia, or heart trouble. Match the pattern to the cause; see a vet for pneumonia or heart disease.
How to Prevent Your Dog from Catching a Cold
Most dog colds come from chills — wet fur, seasonal swings, air conditioning, or drafts — and a few from viruses. Warm bedding, avoiding drafts, and staying away from sick dogs and dirty places cover nearly all of it.
