| Bloating question over fed what can I give. Hi my puppy almost 6 months and ate to much about, 4 hrs ago and has been bloated ever since. He is not whinning he still playing and being normal but is just full feeling. I have read that it can be dangrous. Can I give a antiacid or something for his belly to help with the bloating. He is 4 pounds and ate about 1/4 of cup of innova and then tried to eat my other puppies food. He does inhale his food too. I try to slow him down by feeding him one at a time but I went to the bathroom came back and he had downed all of it. I usually give him only half of that per meal and I feed him 3x a day. Please, if anyone knows what to do? |

| I have the same problem w/Momo. He gulps his food & it causes gas. His stomach makes gurgling sounds & if it's really bloated, I give him 1/4 of pepcid ac. I got him a slow feed bowl & it seems to help, a little.

| Ohhh, I don't know about rolaids...maybe just take him for a little walk? If he doesn't seem uncomfortable, I think he'll be fine w/out any otc human drugs.

| oh no......I've done that (not my dogs---ME) haha hubby doesnt let me pick off of his plate anymore. I have to feed my dogs in separate rooms until meal time is over otherwise i have the same problem. Maybe some belly rubs will help. |

| In case of bloating give digestive enzymes as there are not enough enzymes to digest all that food. This is what causes the bloating. |
