How can you help a dog pass an intestinal obstruction?

You should never try to treat an intestinal obstruction at home. Intestinal obstructions can be life-threatening and should be treated by a veterinarian immediately.

Here are some tips on how to prevent intestinal obstruction in dogs:

* Feed your dog a diet that is high in fiber. Fiber helps to bulk up the stool and make it easier to pass.

* Avoid feeding your dog bones, as they can splinter and cause obstructions.

* Keep your dog away from small objects that they could swallow.

* If you think your dog may have swallowed something that could cause an obstruction, take them to the vet immediately.
