abdominal distention, nausea, attempts to vomit and defecate,
colic, constipation, praying position and neurologic
seizures. Bilateral abdominal distention, colic and evidence

dog food for adult dog and overeating. Edema and thickness,
increased mucus, hyperemia, mucosal fragility and sensitivity

Gastric dilatation and chronic gastritis were diagnosed on

the case could be a result of falsely feeding. We recommend
the gastric decompression and lavage along with the use of
sedative and fluid therapy in the treatment of the cases.
