Distended/Bloated Stomach

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • I have a 13yr old basenji, who recently developed a distended/bloated stomach. We took him to vet and blood test and urine test were complete with no abnormalities. Vet would like to perform and ultrasound but hasn?t explained what she is looking for. Any thought on what it could be and questions I should ask vet? Thank you.

    @wizard: Makes you wonder what the vet schools are teaching too! Indeed it does!

    Thank you all so much for your posts, they truly helped me a lot. Being my first puppy, it is nice to be reaffirmed that she is just a puppy and that this is normal puppy behavior…. I will definitely continue with the training and try to be more consistent with my approaches. I truly did not think that this was aggression and I'm sorry for the misleading title post; I guess I was involving my own feelings as it has been a little frustrating to say the least. I see how the other puppies are in puppy class, and then there is little Kaya running around barking/yodeling for the entire hour - She is a little diva. Thanks again, and I look forward to continued interactions in this forum!

    Macpack, that is exactly what I will be doing from here on out, even though I got a new fancy trash can. Who knows, he might not have gotten so sick from trash digging, but I am not willing to take another chance.. Yes helpless is definitely how you feel.. but he is all well, still on antibotic and bland foods, but I am slowly introducing his normal diet, and I bought some probiotics and digestive enzymzes for him to take as well..any thing for a healthy gut..lol

    I agree, rawhide is bad for most dogs. I never give it to my 2.

    My vet told me I could give a whole benadryl tablet for his seasonal allergies. I sometimes give him half a tablet and hide it in some cream cheese. I boiled a chicken leg with some rice, carrots and green beans. His stool seems to be getting better since I gave him 1/2 an immodium last night.
