What to do if your dog's tummy growls and refuses to eat

Stomach: The abdomen refers to the belly. A dog's tummy growling and refusing to eat may be caused by abdominal coldness, spoiled food consumption, indigestion, acute gastroenteritis, and gastric ulcers.

Firstly, if the abdomen is just cold, the growling and loss of appetite are a normal phenomenon, and owners do not need to worry too much. Secondly, if the dog has other uncomfortable symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal bloating, it is recommended to take the dog to a regular pet hospital for treatment.

Abdominal coldness:

If the weather is cold and the abdominal warmth is not done well, it can lead to the stimulation of the abdomen by cool winds, resulting in growling and affecting the normal appetite. You can give the dog more warm water to drink to improve it, and at the same time, it is necessary to do a good job of warming measures, and there is no need for drug treatment.

Spoiled food consumption:

If a dog eats spoiled food, it may stimulate the gastrointestinal tract, accelerate the movement of the gastrointestinal tract, and cause abdominal growling and loss of appetite. It is necessary to follow the doctor's advice to improve vomiting and diarrhea.

Indigestion:

If a dog eats food that is not suitable for its intestines, it will lead to indigestion, affecting the normal absorption and digestion of food, resulting in abdominal growling. It also accompanied by symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite. Drug treatment is necessary upon the doctor's advice.

Acute gastroenteritis:

If a dog already has acute gastroenteritis, it may cause abdominal sounds, affect the movement of the gastrointestinal tract, and lead to a lack of appetite and diarrhea. It is necessary to follow the doctor's advice and take anti-diarrhea and antibiotic treatment.

Gastric ulcers:

Usually caused by an unhealthy diet and Helicobacter pylori infection, the disease can cause gastric mucosal ulcers. After eating, it can cause severe gastric mucosal damage, affecting appetite and leading to refusal to eat. Under the guidance of a doctor, medications to protect the gastric mucosa can be taken.
