How to Diagnose Bloat in Miniature Schnauzers and Other Canines

If you own a canine, then you may want to talk to your vet about various canine diseases and illnesses as well as review lists of symptoms. Being informed could help you recognize an illness in your own pup at an early stage. For example, understanding what canine bloat is, what the symptoms are, and what should be done if your dog develops bloat can help save your pup’s life. Bloat can occur when abnormal amounts of gas, food or fluid build-up in the stomach causing it to expand. This expansion can apply pressure to surrounding organs and prevent blood flow to the heart and other areas. Symptoms may include unsuccessful attempts to vomit, anxiety, restlessness, hunched up appearance, no normal digestive sounds in the stomach, bloated or tight abdomen, whining, pacing, drooling, unsuccessful attempts to poop, heavy breathing, etc. Only your vet Smyrna GA can diagnose bloat.
