Hi have you been on DFA before?? this post sounds familiar, your poor dog has BAD ACID REFLUX, arrange for her to have a Endoscope + Biopsies” done you must get the Biopsies none as well, sometimes the stomach well look great like there’s no problems but the biopsies will tell another story…….My boy does this he has the Helicobacter-Pylori + IBD she needs to be put on Omeprazole (Losec) taken every morning doesn’t have to be before food, Omeprazole is a blocker & stops making the Hydrochloric acid in the stomach, your vet will explain how Omeprazole works, for now buy some liquid Mylanta put in fridge also buy a 20ml syringe to pull up the Mylanta about 3-5 mls & put in the side of her mouth when reverse swallowing starts happening, the Mylanta will coat her esophagas & stomach & she will stop the reverse swallowing… I watch the video you need to find out why this is happening, my boy did the same thing as your girl is doing in video the other morning he woke up from his morning sleep 8am, he had eaten 1 hr before 7am, straight away he got up ran to the front door for his grass, the grass pushes the acid back down throat but vet said to give him the Liquid Mylanta instead it coats the lining of the stomach & throat….Make her comfortable a bit of Mylanta will not hurt her it will relieve her symptoms instantly trust me…
See a vet that does Endoscope & Biopsies or ask vet can she be started on the Omeprazole straight away, to see how she goes, some vets will give you a repeat script, so you just pick the Omeprazole at the chemist…..
