cheekychimp23 tells us more.
Just so people know I'm not a terrible dog owner - we have been to the vet numerous times and they told me it happens because her tail was docked too short when she was a puppy! I feed her oil but sadly it does not help. Sigh. Keep squeezing I guess. FML.

How exactly do you squeeze crap out of a dog?
Umm maybe you should go to the vet and get some doggy laxatives!
It could be hypothyroidism. Try giving the dog a mild laxative and then take it out for walkies. How I hate dogs......
Put some prune juice in her food.
Sometimes it can be as simple as your dog is not getting enough water, or has the wrong food. I would still take the dog into the vet though to check things out.

You may need to change the dog food you are feeding her. Just a suggestion. It isn't right she should have that problem.
Dogs and cats tails are part of their spinal cord. When it is docked too short, the spinal cord became a bit mutated and can put pressure on the rectum, making it hard to poop. My cat is a manx so she naturally has to tail. Because on that her rectum is deformed and I have to help her poop sometimes. Two vets have told me that.
