vomiting in bulldogs

Sometimes dogs will produce large amounts of acid if they go too long in between meals. While this is more common in bulldogs, it can happen in any breed. It sounds like this is what is happening with your lab. You can apply a quick fix to this by feeding him a biscuit or two very late at night. This should keep his hunger down and the acid in his stomach to a minimum until breakfast.

I thought of the vomiting too, it could be that and he does spit up after gulping. He is also a big licker..mostly of me but I guess he could licking his bedding. He is wet to the touch, not dripping but moist .I change is bedding twice a week and air it out everyday. I even made sure he has pure wool too absorb any moisture. Since he is healthy otherwise and sweating seems not possible Iam going to keep an eye on him.Thank you all very much for your imput.

Why do you say that all dogs are allergic to wheat? Are you referring to just bulldogs or all dogs in general? While it's true that wheat is one of the more common allergens of dogs, a blanket statement like that is misleading and shouldn't be used without having substantial proof. Food allergies account for about 15% of all allergic conditions with dogs and beef, wheat, and dairy account for 68% of that 15%.

You also have to consider the genetic health of your dog before deciding to breed her. In breeds like this, it is more important than in any other breeds to make sure she came from a breeder who is breeding their dogs with the improvement of the breed in mind and not someone who simply bred their pet because they wanted to have a litter of puppies, because there ARE so many health issues with the bulldog breeds.

We have 2 English Bulldogs, the female was spayed last year, The male wasn't fixed. For the past 2 weeks he won't leave her alone, he is always in her butt, sniffing and licking. He gets so excited he pants constintely. It's not good for Bulldogs to get over heated. We have airconditioning and they have plenty of water, they have access to 3 bowls daily, even when outside. Does anyone know why he is acting like she is in heat, and HOW DO I STOP him from doing this?

I woke up this morning to find my bully had diareha and vomitted. I took her to the vet and they drew blood and gave me anit-diarrheal and anti-nausea med's. Latter in the afternoon I found a mass about the size of a small fist under her nipples by her thigh. I took her back to the vet who said it might be a hernia. Now all of a sudden she started panting for about 1-2 minutes while lying on the couch.

Ya, we are trying him on a new food diet, I am hoping this helps. They checked for mites and he didn't have any. Poor baby, looks like he's in so much pain.

t know anything about tremors, so I looked it up-seems that Bulldogs are noted for this-Primarily in English Bulldogs-Some other breeds get this too, some medications may help, also the data provided that ear infections can cause this too. I just put in head tremors for dogs, and all this great info came up. Blood chemistry work up was recommended. Said a lot of CAT scans and MRIs did not always show problems, but was recommended. I hope you find out what is going on with your baby soon.

now she had a previous scan last week and was told she had 4 pups possibly 5 the vet said this is normal in dogs but I’m just worried and unsure.So anyway as I came out of vet room she dropped a few more spots but vet says she’s fine and she’s normal .Am I just been over paranoid or could it be something else as I’m thinking she’s either loosing them or got an infection of some sort she’s back next week for another scan but vet said to be done repaired for nothing to be there .

What breed of dog is he? I have heard for instance that Bulldogs suffer commonly with allergies. It might be helpful to try him with a dose of childrens Benadryl. I am really not sure of the dose. I'll take a look in the archives (I seem to remember a post about that sometime last year) and post back if I find out anything about dosage. Another thought is -could he have something either embedded or stuck in between the pads of his feet?

Naturally, the mummified fetus is not viable, but it happens so that the rest of the litter can be born normally without any ill effects to the mother from carrying around a dead fetus. It happens in most animals, and can even happen in animals that only have two or three babies, like goats and sheep. Mummified foals have even been born along with a live twin. The red blood thing has me a bit worried, though.

SHE HAS BEEN PRETTY GOOD LATELY, (WITH JUMPING UP) BUT YESTERDAY GREETED ME WITH A NICE AND HEALTHY 2 PAWS RIGHT IN THE STOMACH.... IT HURT, AND IT WAS PAINFUL FOR ABOUT 5-10 MINS...

NOT IN PAIN THO.... WHAT DO U ALL THINK???? AM I WORRING FOR NOTHNG?

Valley Fever is a fungal infection common in AZ that can infect the brain. Bulldogs are also a breed that can develop a poorly understood disorder called head bobbing, but this is diagnosed by ruling out other more serious diseases. I recommend getting the behavior on video to help the veterinarian with further diagnosis and therapy; additionally a referral to the veterinary neurologist (www.vetneuro.com) is in order if bloodwork and Valley Fever testing are all normal.

s have difficulty breathing because of the way their nose and face is shaped, most pugs and bulldogs are always snorting and wheezing.

Like every other AKC-recognized purebred dog, the bulldog has it's own national club here in the US. I didn't see your dog's particular condition listed, but here is a link to common health issues associated with the bulldog for future reference: http://bcahealth.homestead.com/conditions.

In brachycephalic breeds like bulldogs cleft palates are even more common than in other breeds. They CAN be repaired surgically. I am really surprised that your vet didn't check for this or even mention it as a possibility.

my 3 day old bulldogs have gone very limp and bleeding from the nose ? one has already died any ideas?

Hi Elisa, is you're kitty one with a small peaked nose? (ie: persians or bulldogs, pugs etc.) they will tend to snore as this 'break' in their noses causes some obstruction, no not really anything to worry over...unless it becomes alot worse and perhaps surgery would open up the nasal passages a bit. As for the shaking leg...that I can't tell you much about, have you spoken to a Vet? Why don't you post this question on our Vet Forum?

yesterday my friend took my bulldog out for a walk it was about 70-72 degrees out during the walk she just stopped walking so my friend carried her home when she was getting close to the house lola(dog) went limp when she got to the house i thought maybe she over heated so i put her in the tub to cool her down put some leamon jucie down her throat to break up any mucose when i picked her up she felt normal temp and her tounge and gums were normal colour i called the vet she told me things to wat

Hi there, i m bit worried about my girl, she is 65days today. No fluid leak at all started shivering last night for around an hour then stopped today its been off and on. Minor panting earlier but nothing since. She's shivering again now and keeps digging. I'm just abit worried at how long the shivering is lasting with nothing else happening. I've only bee involved in bulldogs and each of those had c sections so never been threw this prt .

I have gone to the vet, he is the one who told me it is normal for some dogs. I was wondering about other people's experiences with this?

A few days ago my 7 yr old American Bulldog began having what looked like abdominal contractions, vomited twice and had not much of a runny stool. The next day, he was trying to urinate and a minimal amount, drops even, came out. He has stopped eating now, urine is still minimal, but now there is blood in it. He doesn't even drink as much water anymore. I'm afraid his stomach has twisted somehow or he has a blockage and that his kidneys are failing.
