Tibbe is very quiet this morning & acts like he is maybe having esophageal reflux. His body will kind of kink or jerk, his head goes low & then he is licking his lips & swallowing, kind of like when a person has that bile or whatever it is come up in your throat. I had it once & he's acting like that. He ate his kibble soup(fed it without remembering I was going to use the Hill's I/D I have) this morning but he's been very unhappy since, moping around, big eyes looking at me.
So, it is the vet again for us once surgery hours are over today. He's been like this before over the weekend & I gave him 1/2 cc of Maalox but yesterday, his regular vet said not to use Maalox on him now. It seemed to help him almost immediately when I did use it. I'm wondering if "heartburn" can make a dog act this unhappy. His belly is not especially hard or distended though it doesn't feel it's normal soft self. This boy has every other day problems, it seems. He has a good day and then the next is bad. I'm wondering what in the world is next.
