Pet's info: Dog | Japanese Chin | Female | spayed | 11 years and 6 months old | 9 lbs
Hi, my japanese chin has a recurring problem with her stomach. from time to time, and more often now that she is getting older, her belly makes the loudest, squeaky type noise that can actually keep me awake. She stops eating and drinking for 1 to 2 days, and I used to force water down her but now I just let it run it's course. Her vet told me to give her antacid pills and didn't seem too concerned last visit for this, but the pills don't do anything. any suggestions?
