I know this question has been asked before and I'm looking through the old threads for answers...and I posted in the health & diet section:

Maximo is showing signs of great discomfort, arching his back, holding his tail up in a strange way. He has not eaten anything out of the ordinary today. The only thing different that he could have ingested is salt on the street while we were out walking this morning.

I checked his rear end and I don't see any signs of trouble. His abdomen feels firmer than usual, but it isn't distended. Poor guy can't get comfortable in his bed. He keeps jumping up and running to different parts of the room. The he comes back to bed and turns round and round.

I tried taking him out for a short walk to see if that would help work out his problems. He appeared fine and barked energetically at another dog and walked briskly. I brought him back inside because I was worried about overdoing it.

Any suggestions for what I should give him for possible gas and constipation?
