I have one dog who gets extremely gassy (burping and passing gas) for hours after eating.
He even appears to look a bit "Bloated", which is very distressing.
The first time I was minutes from going to the pet ER.
This has now been a regular occurrence lately. Not every day, but often enough. I have stopped adding water, I used to add it, but it makes no difference.
I do not exercise him before or after and only feed when he is calm. He does not inhale his food.
What could this be??
He is 5 and this is really scaring me.
We saw this sometimes in rescues. Sometimes it was too much fiber, sometimes not enough. Sometimes it was a food intolerance. Sometimes it was worms having messed up the intestinal tract. Sometimes just adding Prozyme helped. How are his stools? From what food to what food did you change? Be specific on formulas, please.
You might consider a prophylactic worming with Safeguard. What is your worming/HW program?
Stools are perfectly normal.
Food was pro plan performance now is blue buffalo grain free salmon.
Happened on both.
I took your advice and have been safe guarding him for the last 2 days.
It's still happening.
Our dogs get monthly heartguard year round.
I am at a loss.

Try giving him beano's with his food to see if that helps, me might just have IBS but I would get him to the vet for a complete check up to see what is causing it, I have a friend who's dog had polups that had to be removed and cost her a pretty penny to do that
