It is important to know what you are feeding your dog, if it is titbits and treats containing complex starches, which can be in many foods that you don't think they are in, this can cause the dog to be constipated. Particularly if combined with meat cooked with fat. Since these two don't digest well together in the stomach, or provide roughage.
Is your dog drinking enough? Monitor his drinking bowl, which should be refreshed regularly during the day.
Many dog owners think that giving their dog a diet comprised of food they eat from the table, with high fat gravy, and bread etc, is preferable to give to the dog, when compared to dry specialised dog pellets. This could be because they have raised the dog on this unsuitable diet. This is not true, buy properly balanced dog food, not cheap brands, read the information on the packet, and ask your vet.
He may be old and have problems with his bowel.
If it persists you should see your vet.
