    What is he eating now? If it is all dry kibble, maybe add a bit of broth to it, help him with some fluid intake. NOT A LOT, just a bit.

    If he is eating wet food, then just keep track and let him be as he is acting normal.

    Thank you for your help everyone. He is just eating dry food right now because we're trying to figure out what he's allergic to and we think it might be somthing in wet food since everytime he eats it he itches more. He does seem to be drinking enough so that's good. I am just praying that he goes tonight or early tomorrow.

    You can always soften the dry food with a little warm water, so he gets more moisture that way!

    Thanks for your advice Karen. Paulie finally had a BM after over 60 hours, I was so happy, it was not as soft but it's not tootie roll shape like I hear it's suppsoed to be. The vet is supposed to call us this week with the results from the swab but I'm sure it's negative. he said next we could do an ultrasound. I don't know what to do, do you think stools that aren't shapped like this are a problem? Thanks again for everyone help!
