A tablespoon of pumpkin (not pie filling) will cure either constipation or diarhea

Apples help also. Just a couple of pieces. Make sure no skin or seeds.

You could add some bran to her food. Not much at a time or it will be a reverse situation again.

Are you sure she hasn't pooped. Maybe she did poop and she ate it. I had problems with that for awhile. We thought that she was constipated until we caught her in the act

...such a nasty habit for a pretty little girl

Thanks for all your suggestions..Nope, no poop here..not even a drop!! I am going to pick up some pumkin and give it a try!! I am also considering switching her food. I switched her to Nutro Max from Eukanuba months ago, but since then I have seen all her tummy problems (random vomiting and diarrhea, and dry itchy skin). Been to the vet, they see no problems... I have read that Nutro Ultra is a better line...any suggestions??
