New Puppy hasnt Pooped

I brough a puppy home on Sunday evening and today is day 3 and she hasnt pooped.  She has eaten some but not awhole lot.  Should I be concerned or is this normal as the puppy may be stressed due to the new surroundings?  She will get checked by the Vet on Fri, but should I be concerned and call the vet now?

You could try a teaspoon of Caro syrup.It acts like a natural laxative and is safe to use.

I would call your vet and address this today as 3 days is too long without passage of stool.
I am glad to offer suggestions once your vet takes a look.
Best Wishes
