Yes, fiber. Whenever my dog has either problem, I give her canned pumpkin and it clears her up in no time. Might be worth trying pumpkin sometime, but metamucil is probably easier to get them to ingest...

I had a ewe become constipated on acorns last year - the only thing that
helped was Metamucil - tried mineral oil, too - but the metamucil was what really
helped - gave it to her twice a day for several days to get her completely
over it .. . if that's what the problem is, maybe that will help.
