[Dailydrool] Gassy Puppy

[Mucci, Annette]

Anyone ever have experience with a gassy puppy?

I went home last night and my heart just about stopped.  The DH was home
all day with the dogs, but was gone for most of the evening last night.

I let Lucy out of her crate and holy belly.  She looked a balloon and
her belly was rock hard.

So I get everyone out.  In my mind, trying not to panic because I'm
thinking OMG does she have bloat.  So I call the DH cell phone.  No Lucy
did not look like that when he left.  So then I really start to fret.

In the meantime, she's done her business outside and is now dragging
toys through the house, playing with Sophie and Apollo.

I call the vet.  Dumb question.  Do puppies get bloat?  After going down
a long list of symptoms they thought she either had gas or worms.

I had her outside and she was pooping and peeing like crazy last night.
Also tooting as she played too.  I checked on her at midnight and she
went both again.

Got up this morning and she looked like a normal puppy again.

That was a first for me out the last 5 puppies I've had.  Anyone else
ever encounter this and what did you or didn't you do?

Love and drool to all,
Annette, Schroeder, Sophie, Lucy, Apollo & Cash (Maya and Cassie atb)
