Severe Bloating

Wheat and barley are fed to cattle because they are a cheap source of high protein grains. These grains result in rapid weight gain for finishing cattle off for slaughter. If the cattle industry knows that wheat and barley grains rapidly fatten cattle we should not be surprised at the obesity epidemic in our grain and carbohydrate focused diet.

Bloat refers to the bloating of the stomach. Essentially it is a build up of gas in the stomach which is unable to be released. Bloat with Gastric Dilatation-Volvulus (GDV) occurs when the stomach fills with gas and twists 180 to 360 degrees on it's axis between the esophagus and duodenum or the entrance and exit parts of the stomach. Bloat is a very serious problem in large breed dogs. When combined with the complications of GDV, bloat is a leading cause of death of dogs, second only to cancer...

The medical term for stomach bloating is 'abdominal distension'. Stomach bloating is usually caused by irregular functioning of the digestive system. Due to the malfunctioning of the digestive system gases are emitted out at a rapid rate and these gases get caught in your tummy causing your stomach to bloat.

Ever hear of dog bloat? I have, but I've ignored it. I know it causes an excruciatingly painful death, and there are several causes, certain warning signs, and possible treatment. But it scares me, so I've ignored it. But recently I've heard several horror stories about friends' dogs getting bloat and dying, or nearly dying. So I've decided to take my head out of the sand and learn about it, scary as it is.

Bloat is a condition that happens to many dogs, and as a responsible pet owner, it is one that you need to look into and be aware of. When your dog has bloat, it means that his intestinal tract is full of gas or fluid or foam. For the most part, animals will vent through the valve at the bottom of their stomach, but if this valve is blocked or if there is food in the way, the build up of gas can be quite dangerous to your animal.

Your dog can come inside to eat his dinner, go out and start to play, and the next thing you know he is gasping for air, going into shock, and before you know what has even happened, he has died. We are very fortunate in that we identified bloating very early in one of our previous Dalmatians, but even with all the safe guards that we take with our current Dalmatian, he still gets mild forms of bloating where he simply throws up, thank goodness, which prevents it from getting to the serious stage.
