Florentina V on Gulping Attacks with Excessive Licking – SOLUTION!
Reply To: Dog gulping and swallowing
Three and a half years and you don’t have a diagnosis? Look at some prior posts, what you describe is called “pica”. It is often neurological, especially when other causes are ruled out.
Make an appointment with a veterinary neurologist, ASAP.
His symptoms may be related to a seizure disorder. There are medications that will stop the suffering. Stop looking for veterinary advice online (you get what you pay for).
Tell your vet you need a referral, right away (veterinary neurologist).
Stop wasting time.
This is not veterinary advice; consult your veterinarian.
Ps: “She says the next step would be an ultra sound and maybe some anxiety medicine like prosaic ?”
Yes, the ultrasound may help rule out certain conditions and the Prozac may help with anxiety (if that is what is causing the episodes)
I would still prefer that the dog be seen by a neurologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment, instead of the regular vet, especially since the symptoms are now chronic rather than acute..
