My dog was diagnosed with acid reflux and esophagitis based on symptoms (was not scoped) I’ll spare the whole long story and give facts hopefully it will help someone
Symptoms:
Episodes of licking anything and everything along with it he had pica(eating anything)
Hyper-salivating
Weight loss
Things that worked….
Natural balance chicken and sweet potato dry split into three meals SOAKED for hours
-canned I/D worked great but too expensive for 60lb dog
Reglan (metocloprimide) hour before breakfast and dinner
Pepcid with breakfast and dinner
Twice a day sucralfate suspension on empty stomach
Eight weeks of all that seemed to help. Was able to take away all meds but I continued to feed three soaked meals. I make sure dinner is early because sleeping shortly after the sphincter relaxes too much causing the reflux
Hope that helps. Good luck….
