Hi dr jones im wondering if a dog can have vomiting about 1-3 hrs after eating if they have acid reflux. Have you heard of anything like that. TY for all you do.
When using slippery elm, it must given two hours apart from any medications (and some remedies) currently being used as SE can interfere with the absorption of some medications. ❤ Slippery elm has so many wonderful uses!😊
Came here for my own remedy. I've been batteling ulcers for 12+yrs and can't find much info other than what doesn't work and they've gotten so bad, I'm the worst the GI doc has ever seen. Yet they still do nothing. I've had such good results with my dogs off your advice that I trust your advice for my own ailments and I can't wait to try these
Baby blue I am so sorry. I have had alot of upset stomach & bowel issues- I take slippery elm in powder form with 8oz water 1st thing in am or last thing at nite and not with other meds. It gets a bit slimey but has a pleasant taste. Also prepared foods can have chemicals, dyes, corn syrup & seed oils so make your own home made bland foods at home- banana, white rice, applesauce, organic toast, scrambled eggs in small amts- for a couple days. Pedialite for hydration. Best wishes.
Alittle over a year ago my little rescue chihuahua shihtzu mix developed the symptoms you just described....she retches and will stretch out and may vomit and she won't eat or take the pepcid. She had abdominal films, an abdominal ultrasound and the vet said he would diagnose her with IBD. Went to the Animal Medical Ctr in NYC and she was seen by a vet who focuses more on GI issues and she had an endoscopy with a few biopsies done.....showed gastritis, inflammatory changes in her small intestines and acid reflux. They put her on pepcid 2 x daily and decreasing dose of prednisone (not happy) and wanted to keep slowly reducing it but if it gets too low she'll start having episodes again. They also have her on 1/4 of a carafate + water every 8 hrs. When she does, it starts in the morning, she won't eat and she'll be miserable, tired all day. So she was also put on a liquid anti-nausea med 1 x daily when an episode is starting up ( which helps alot), and dietary changes and completely cut chicken out of her diet. I tried the novel proteins but neither of my dogs liked them so I have her on an anti-allergy rotation diet. Now she developed a brown tear stained face. I am looking for an integrative vet here in the NYC and northern NJ area. Not that easy to find :( Any suggestions for treatment for chron's disease. She now can go 4 mos. without an episode....most of the time. Inbetween, she can be very feisty, peppy and hungry. I really would hope to stop the lo dose of her prednisone....but if I keep her on everything and time it carefully, she does ok. But I know these meds are covering up the real problems, that's why I want a holistic/integrative vet to see her. Thank you for all the information you give us, it's so important. And love your 🐕 dogs.
@ Susan Murrell I don't know anything about canine health but I've been going to my holistic vet for 39years( actually longer when he was only a veterinary practitioner)and know he has treated hundreds, probably thousands of dogs with the exact same digestive issues as your sweet dog. You dog will still require a work up to some degree, depending upon the records you bring to your new holistic/integrative vet. He/ she will probably require their own labs as their approach is quite different and to start off with fresh results. Holistic/integrative veterinary medicine combines the best of alternative and conventional therapies for the individual pet. I can tell you without hesitation, that when circumstances call for, he refers his patients out when the need is deemed necessary. A smart vet and one that has your pet's and your's best interests at heart will do that. He started out in traditional/ conventional veterinary medicine before I met him. He has a very long career behind him. Keep searching the AHVMA site for holistic vets. You may to do a bit of traveling when you find one. Let me make one thing clear... there is no such thing as a vet who practices homeopathic remedies ONLY. Only holistic vets who integrate into homeopathic remedies into their practice along with other therapies/modalities/treatment plans. Occasionally the traditional/conventional/western medicine vets will give you some of the remedies like Dr.Andrew, such as the use of famotidine, which is more up their alley, but even that's rare, as they will usually try to give you a prescription instead. Some are just now becoming more open to agreement in letting their patients use it over the counter and split their own tablets. 🙄(This of course depends upon pet's illness and what med it actually calls for) One weekend when I called my vet at home, he actually did ask me if I had ever tried famotidine before for my cats after vomiting spells for hairballs that left them nauseous and inappetant! Bring him in if not better in 48 hours. Holistic medicine takes into account your pet as a whole. Not just "here's a stomach issues, take this medicine". It looks at the whole picture...genetics, home environment, stress factors, diet, What's going at home (relationships) exposure to possible toxins and medical history to name the biggest ones I can think of. It may seem like a lot to weed through, but it's necessary and once again, your pet is treated as a whole. As a person who has been going to a holistic vet for 39years, I can vouch for only the best care and respect of my cat's lives. Every time I present with a new problem, I must answer some, if not all of these questions to help to root of the problem sooner. I'm used to this, so I'm well prepared and know the drill. I will also say that I was patient of his well before he began practicing holistic medicine, so I've been on both sides. My cats were some of the first patients he treated holisticly. Not all patients were. Needless to say, he's been in practice for many years but still continues his education in all fields of alternative medicine. Please keep looking for your holistic vet on the AHVMA site. I have met people who have found their holistic vet but indeed did need to a little traveling. Maybe a few hours. If my memory serves me right, there were teleconference(are they called zoom calls now? I used to call them face time calls for updates after visits for some. IBD,Crohn's,chronic constipation/obstipation,and other digestive diseases are not only hard on our pets, but equally stressful on the owner. Chronic pet illness is all consuming. I wish you the very best luck and hang in there. If you can find your vet, I think you'll be on your road to recovery. Much love ❤
@ Susan Murrell I did a quick search on AHVMA's site... There are 57 holistic vets in NY alone. One in NYC.(I didn't verify this vet's current account or information, you'll have to do that for yourself if you don't mind please, I'm just trying to help you get started. 😊) In NJ there are 18. I sincerely hope that gives you some help in your search.😉

@@pawsup_n_boops Titres aren't supported here in Texas either. Very few states do but there's a movement to get titre testing made into law across the country, headed by Dr. John Robb. You can Google him of course, but he's also found on Facebook where he holds live updates on proceedings and what is happening. He used to own a Banfield Hospital and refused to vaccinate his patients with all the same dose, no matter what size they were, not giving the same amount of vaccine to an 8 lb dog as you would a 75 lb dog, etc. And only healthy pets should ever be vaccinated, never chronically ill ones. He actually stood up to the oath he took in veterinary school, basically , First, Do no harm. He's not against vaccines, just using them safely and only when immunity cannot be proven for whatever reason by titre testing...something like that. You really need to check out his Facebook page to get all this correctly. I believe he's in Vermont or somewhere close. He's a Christian man with strong moral values and beliefs in the oath he took in school. The Protect Your Pets Movement started up there and is slowly, very slowly moving down... he's fighting big pharma and Mars and everyone who bought out the pet hospitals... depending upon where you live, you may be able get titre testing through his application here sends to the U of Kansas. It's less expensive and he has the form all ready. You only need the simple blood draw to send. Go check him out on Facebook or Google him.

Lettuce, fruitcake and chocolate? Sounds like a bad holiday weekend. Thanks for all you do. Never imagined my babies could suffer from acid reflux. Good information!
Oh, and just a quick note for humans but I don't recommend it for animals as I have zero knowledge about safety issues; mastic gum from Greece helps with H pylori issues. It takes a bit of getting used to but it does a great job of helping to decrease the bad bacteria. Also good for dental bacteria. Healthy people have the energy needed to take good care of their animals!
I study herbalism; I’ve been using slippery elm for my small dog for years when needed. I buy the dried powder herb in bulk, make a gruel with a tsp of powder & 1/4 cup of water, heated on the stove, stirring constantly while it turns into a gruel the consistency of honey or thick gravy, let it cool, give it to her in a syringe, 1-2 teaspoons a few times a day. It helps with vomiting, diarrhea or constipation. I think when they’ve been vomiting it’s a better option than making them swallow a capsule or tablet. It tastes good so they don’t mind. It can also be added to water or food.
Terry henry cream cheese worked best for my yorkie. It coats the pill well. Some dogs like peanut butter (no additives). I've given medicine that didn't smell or taste too strong with a little bit of food or disolved in a little bit of broth. It has to be something your dog likes, for example my dog didn't like peanut butter so that wouldn't work but he liked any kind of cheese, pieces of Turkey, homemade treats... But, be careful what kind of medicine you give, stick with natural remedies as much as possible.
My dog has had acid reflux for years. It makes him miserable. I have adjusted his meals to 3 times a day. He eats raw, so low fat low protein is not going to be real possible. I do give him pepcid when its really severe and he can't get comfortable, but I try not to make a habit of it. I will try the slippery elm!
Sometimes it looks like my dog is having gas pains so I give her a Gas-X and after that she seems to be fine.. I have given her one of those once in a while if I think that she’s having that kind of a problem.
I noticed my wiener/ chihuahua mix was gagging a lot this week. Plus he has tracheal collapse. He groans in his sleep and gags so I’m thinking like the rest of the family, he has acid reflux. I started him on Pepcid tonight. 🤞🏽it gives him some relief.
@Veterinary Secrets Dr Jones, what about baking soda? When my dog had mast cell cancer it would cause acid buildup and I would give him slippery elm, I didn't know chamomile had antacid properties, thank you... but I would give him baking soda dissolved in a little bit of maple syrup away from meals and that worked best. Word of caution when choosing otc products, make sure they don't have any additives. For example baby medicine often have sweeteners.
It's very strange. We had to take my goldendoodle to the er yesterday. Not sure what was going on, doctor thinks he might have eaten plant that slightly poisoned him. The doctor sent him home and told me to give him omeprazole for a day. WOW, that drug made him sicker than before. He had some anxiety after taking the drug and then started acting very uncomfortable and started to act like he was swallowing air or going to vomit. Unfortunately I think he had a bad reaction to the drug.
My dog gets acid reflux, indigestion off and on, and the past few days have been a little challenging for her. Tonight was the worst though. She threw up all her food a little while ago. I fed her homemade chicken soup with a fresh chicken. some rice, carrots, and celery (no spices of any kind) mid day, but apparently her stomach was still irritating her. I'm sure I have chamomile tea and will give her some tomorrow. I have some organic canned pumpkin and was considering giving her a little of that tomorrow also.
@@VeterinarySecrets Thank you and I will. I adopted her from a shelter 3 years ago so I'm figuring out this is a life change for her. Today she is good. I haven't given her anything yet to give her digestion a break. She woke up happy and perky today with no additional vomiting. I'll keep you posted on her progress.
@@VeterinarySecrets Hello. I provided an update but it appears to be gone. Since my last post my dog threw up another couple of times so I added the chamomile tea. She's back to normal good health. I noticed that the tea made her sleep well. That may be a regular supplement for her and I before bedtime.
Hi dr. Andrew, My dog has similar symptoms. He’s had them for a while and it has been so stressful trying to help him 😭 I’m hoping you can give me some insight here: Can dogs develop mouth sores or sores on the roof of their mouth from long term acid reflux? Also, do you have any recommendations for low fat, low protein food? And is there any negative side effects to using Pepcid on dogs long term? Thank you so much.
I had doctor tell me they (not sure who they are) are using Pepcid as COVID-119 therapeutic......As a 2 legged dog I use slippery elm regularly for preventative gut health.
Please discuss the goat's dewormer that is used for multiple pets/cost effective. Please clarify if this is what is used to treat dogs/cats by vets. Thank you!!!
You're such a delightful person and a dedicated doctor, you are truly an inspiration Dr Emovon on RUclips, I'm finally free from bad breath and acid reflux stay blessed sir..🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for your great advice and help! My dog has a diharea and all the sleepers elm and pumpkin & probiotic I gave her, still didn’t help. What else shall I do? Thanks again for your outstanding help!
Not sure if this is correct. Acid reflex can be a sign of not enough acid in the stomach. It is in humans. So by taking anti acid you make the symptoms go away but condition gets worse. Could be the same with dogs, Doc. I’m giving my apple cider vinegar mixed in his water instead. The same thing I do for me. I use slippery elm too for my dog.
Can you recommend a good low fat food? I’ve been using Royal canin low fat gi for many years for my senior chihuahua with a very sensitive stomach. She’s now switched to wet food only to further help avoid stomach problems, which it has helped - but now she’s experiencing what I believe is acid reflux. Pepcid ac seems to help a bit, but I want to avoid the problem all together. I’m curious if this food is too acidic - and maybe if there are better alternatives?
Recently heard of this digestion problem my friends brothers dog, and one I read about, two in one day but never heard of it before!!?? It’s cure is to have the dog eating sitting up?? I can look it up to tell you but I’m sure you know the real name you know EVERYTHING God bless you but what’s going on? Is it the foods we’re feeding them or age? 😫🙏❤️
Im so lost my vet says my dogs fine, but i strongly feel he has acid reflux licking air, stops running to eat grass mid fetch. Wondering if its safe to start pepcid
More brilliant advice, so pleased you explained what my dog has, it's almost like a fur ball reaction in a cat. On the case with the camomile thank you so much Doc.
I have a 6 months old puppy that has acid reflux. I cannot find any puppy food that is low fat and low protein, but I want to give him slippery elm. Is the dosage same for puppies? And can he just get some every day?
How is your puppy? My puppy has been having acid reflux for a month now and after so much vet bills they still don’t know they basically are just having me play with the dosage of Cisapride but he needs more protein and to gain more weight. I’m thinking of switching to a bland diet and just go from there. He is currently on puppy gi soft food but still regurgitating once a day
So just found this video. So I have a Mini Schnauzer Boy. When he was around 2-3 years of age he would throw up almost daily white mucus. I took pics and brought him to the vet. My dog has many allergies. The vet said it was his food and that my dog does have GI issues. The vet put him on Royal Canin veterinary Hydrolyzed Protein HP. He was doing great for about 3 years. He is 10 now and its starting again. He does not throw up often but its like he is heaving almost daily. He also has allot of fatty tumors as he has aged. Anyway is there another food you can recommend or can I give him and can he take the Slippery Elm daily?
So my Newfoundland has acid reflux. I dont have pills but I have slippery elm powder. How much would I use for 155 lbs? And qould I just put it in his food? He eats raw ground which I make myself.
I can't find a video anywhere. What can you do when they are having a bad acid reflux attack and how long do these last. My bet said to just wait it out an but this awful. Its been about 40 min.
@@Sam-fg9lf Im in Ireland so purchases from oceans alive UK. In America Mercola.com sell it and many good products which are natural and effective. The probiotics has relieved my dog getting sick very reguarly due to digestive issues since a pup. Once it's mixed through her food she's good.
Doctor, my 14lb Cavalier drinks so much water she immediately throws up every time she’s thirsty. I have to stand over her and yell at her to stop before she drinks too much. ???
My 11 lbs toy Poodle always seem to get heartburn. The vet has given Sulkofrate. Which works great but it seems like the acid builds up in his system over about 2 week time. I do small meals, brought food up high do he isn't eating low. Would Pepsid AC be a better option? Or Slippery Elm be better
my dog is 4lbs.. had a bone surgically removed from esophagus. She was always on hard food, now soft food in little meatballs. Vet is telling me esophageal dysphagia after a barium radiology study that showed no strictures or blockages. Im being told that food can collect in the esophagus while she is sleeping and she can wake up hours after she eats with the licking, gagging, retching, bringing up white spit and sounds like darth vader... I'm feeding her special prescription Royal Canin GI food, small portions, every 4-6 hours in little meatballs and holding her vertically after she eats.... She moreso has the issues in between meals, not during... How should I dose the Pepcid or the other with her small weight? I cannot put pills down her throat.. Can i mix it with her food while she eats, or does it need to be taken in between meals?
My dog doesn’t seem in pain, I’m taking him to the vet on Friday but he’s been swallowing and licking his lips. I saw something about this also being seizures, he seems coherent and can pay attention to me when he is gulping.. does this sound like acid reflux to you doc?
Can you use any of these with your cat too. Different ??? For you now doc. I've a 16yr old cat who has gone blind 4weeks ago. Want to know if she understands what is going on in her life I know probably silly ??. But... I worry.
@Daisy Wolf So Sorry To Hear About Your Cat's Lose Of Sight...Unfortunately I Don't Have Knowledge About Cat Doses Or Benefits ;-( But I Luv Ur So Caring!
Thank you so much. I am so grateful And I pray that God continues to bless you I really appreciate you Dr Emovon on RUclips for restoring my health, for giving me a permanent cure to my acid reflux disease...
@@Sam-fg9lf Slippery Elm is daily but I stop once the issue appears better. I dont believe it's an ongoing Supplement and pepsid is just when your dogs appears to have a belly ache or Heartburn. Laying flat on belly front paws flat out and licking cloth furniture
@@carolalmeida220 then what is an ongoing supplement? My dog seems to have bad acid reflux so bad it hurts and he throws his food up. I’ve been to the vet 2 times last week and I don’t want to keep him on prescription medication.
Why does giving my dog camomile make her anal glands go crazy? She sprays little bits everywhere, when stretching, sleeping, playing.... Btw, camomile is excellent for building bone density.
I'm thinking my dog might have this. He's had about 4 pancreatic attacks in the last about 3 years. We have him on 5 low fat small meals a day with his bowl raised but he'll still make hacking noises or cough noises and will burp or burp up after eating. I'm worried to give him things though because of his on off pancreatitis. We took him to the vet about it already and they said "dog's don't usually get acid reflux" :/ I'm thinking of trying slippery elm, wondering what the max dosage would be for a 50 to 60lb dog. I was thinking of giving him a lower mg pill with every meal.
Spent thousands of dollars on specialists and nothing found , 10 differnt types of meds and foods , nothing works , dog is so skinny and its aweful on our anxeity , just an aweful condition for poor dogs who dont understand whats happening
Thank you for your tips!! my 11 year old lab has reflux and we've worked on it by doing smaller meals AND elevating her food bowl- which was decreased it significantly but I will definitely try the chamomille tea!!
I’m hazarding a guess that peppermint tea may also provide some relief, or chamomile with ginger (ginger is an excellent digestive aid). And, if your pooch isn’t lactose intolerant, a little drink of milk should also provide temporary relief (I used to chug milk when my digestive problems began). But what provided a huge amount of relief for me - and basically fixed my stomach problems, unless I’m super stressed and haven’t been looking after my diet - is probiotics. Maybe you could give your opinion of these other options, Doc 🙂😉❤️
Idk about milk. Milk in humans is an acid producer. Though not sure if that translates to dogs. Almond milk is an acid neutralizer in humans, but not good for dogs.
Dr Jones, thank you for sharing free information/knowledge to help us better manage our pets health. I watch your videos about cats and follow your advices successfully. I noticed you only have a youtube video about Acid Reflux in Dogs (not cats). Does the same apply to cats? After ruling out other diseases, my 4-year old male scottish fold cat seems to have chorinic GERD. He's shown behavioral symptoms such as restlessness, licking mouth, licking paws (not like grooming but to self-sooth the discomfort), visible difficulty/heavy swallowing, stretching neck out to try to swallow, vomitting of yellow bile or clear white foam whenever he goes 6-8+ hours without food, doesn't like his mouth opened. He did dental cleaning recently and seems to have mild gingivitus but not so much that would cause him the symptoms mentioned so the vet said possible due to Acid Reflux. The doctor prescribed Famotidine 20mg tablet to administer 1/4 tablet once daily for 16 days. This will be his first time taking the tablet and I'm reading plentiful before using it to be super cautious it doesn't cause him other health issues. Are you considering making a video for GERD in cats? I saw 2 of your videos about how to treat Vomiting in Cats and seems almost the same remedies are suggested. Any tip on how to handle GERD in my furry angel would be immensly appreciated. Thank you for caring❤
My dog (who is living with Diabetes & EPI) has been burping a lot recently. Afterwards he will have this sudden ‘burst of energy’ where he runs around in discomfort, licks his lips, and starts breathing rapidly through his nose. Is this a sign of heartburn or acid reflux? I’m considering giving him the chamomile tea.
I think this is exactly what is happening with our female standard poodle. She's 4 years old approximately 50 pounds. I divide her meals into 3 a day, with a small snack at bedtime otherwise she throws up bile in the morning. I want to give her slippery elm. Should I give it to her daily or only when she shows symptoms. Added note she's always had stomach issues and can only have one type of food and no treats. Her dry food is her treat. Thank you in advance. 😊😊😊😊
Great info Dr. Jones. Big thank you. I’ve been using you supplements for a while now. They really are awesome. Do you make a probiotic?Thanks for caring!
Dr Emovon your commitment to helping people with bad breath and acid reflux) is truly remarkable. Thank you for spreading awareness about alternative solutions and providing hope to those who have bad breath and acid reflux. thank you Dr Emovon on RUclips channel..😊😊😊😊😊
My Yorkie gets this, if we don’t get it under control when it starts her intestines fill with gas , and it can go into diarrhea. She does take the Pepsid. Thanks
Oh Chamomile tea! My dog has the stomach acid issue and her vet told me to give. 1/2 Omeprazole when she is having symptoms and it works wonders but I would rather give her something more natural. Can I give the tea every day or just when she is having symptoms? Thanks so much!!!
I've seen a bunch of warnings about allowing a dog to chew omeprazole so I'm guessing they don't really want it cut in half either. I hope your dog is fine now :)
Thank you drohanon for your kindness towards humanity am very grateful that i was able to get rid of my bad breath problem with the help of your supplement i really appreciate your kindness😇
I've used this several times with my girl. Just mix in a glass and use syringe to administer. It's such a fast acting, cheap natural remedy for us and our fur babes.
@@nataliajimenez3468 Apologies for the delayed response! I don't give it to her regularly. Just when I know she's suffering from acid. Another remedy that works is an activated charcoal capsule. You do have to be consciousness when it's given because it absorbs everything. So 2 hours before or after any meds, etc. I've also used Acid Sooth from Enzymatica. I would put a capsule in each of her meals. Another option I'm looking to try is Adored Beast's pro & prebiotics. They have fabulous customer service and will help you determine the best one for your fur babe's specific troubles. Good luck!! I know how heart wrenching it is knowing they're uncomfortable and not being able to help them feel better.
Hey there! I hear you-it can be really tough trying to balance a cancer-fighting diet like keto and managing acid levels. Keep in mind, focusing on high-quality proteins and healthy fats like krill oil or coconut oil can help. You’ve got this! Always keep your vet in the loop, and feel free to check out natural cancer support options like medicinal mushrooms. Wishing your pup the best!

Hi doc! How would you differentiate acid reflux vs IBD? My 4 lb 6 y/o tea cup yorkie has been having GI issues for the last 4 years. We’ve done many tests with no luck, we believe it might be either IBD or possibly acid reflux. She does lick the air A LOT and gets IBD symptoms if she doesn’t eat for too long. We’ve been managing it with a dose of Sucralfate twice daily with random episodes happening a few times a month. When she does get the episodes we give her about half a tablet, and that seems to help a few hours later but we are always looking for more natural solutions. She was eating The Farmers Dog fresh food for a while and then got tired of it, so we changed her to My Ollie fresh food, which she currently loves. Aside from that, she’s a very healthy, active and happy dog! Thank you for your help Doc!
I would absolutely love to see a response to this. This sounds like my 10yr old yorkiepoo! Sucralfate didn’t help much. She now eats raw rabbit food by Small Batch. She absolutely just have acid reflux by the licking, retching and this gulping sound that happens when swallowing, just to name a few. She eats 5 small meals a day , I feed by hand most days as it’s worse if she eats to fast, or I put it in a disk with tony divots to help with anxiety by licking more to get the food out of it. She slowly went from 8 hrs to 7 hours and now is at 6 hrs of the max amount of time between meals before her “IBS” symptoms kick in. Loss of appetite, nausea, grass eating, possible vomit which then leads to pancreatic flare symptoms. I’m sorry your pumpkin is going through this.

she does ok. But I know these meds are covering up the real problems, that's why I want a holistic/integrative vet to see her.
Thank you for all the information you give us,
it's so important. And love your 🐕 dogs.
@ Susan Murrell
I don't know anything about canine health but I've been going to my holistic vet for 39years( actually longer when he was only a veterinary practitioner)and know he has treated hundreds, probably thousands of dogs with the exact same digestive issues as your sweet dog. You dog will still require a work up to some degree, depending upon the records you bring to your new holistic/integrative vet. He/ she will probably require their own labs as their approach is quite different and to start off with fresh results. Holistic/integrative veterinary medicine combines the best of alternative and conventional therapies for the individual pet. I can tell you without hesitation, that when circumstances call for, he refers his patients out when the need is deemed necessary. A smart vet and one that has your pet's and your's best interests at heart will do that. He started out in traditional/ conventional veterinary medicine before I met him. He has a very long career behind him.
Keep searching the AHVMA site for holistic vets. You may to do a bit of traveling when you find one. Let me make one thing clear... there is no such thing as a vet who practices homeopathic remedies ONLY. Only holistic vets who integrate into homeopathic remedies into their practice along with other therapies/modalities/treatment plans. Occasionally the traditional/conventional/western medicine vets will give you some of the remedies like Dr.Andrew, such as the use of famotidine, which is more up their alley, but even that's rare, as they will usually try to give you a prescription instead. Some are just now becoming more open to agreement in letting their patients use it over the counter and split their own tablets. 🙄(This of course depends upon pet's illness and what med it actually calls for) One weekend when I called my vet at home, he actually did ask me if I had ever tried famotidine before for my cats after vomiting spells for hairballs that left them nauseous and inappetant! Bring him in if not better in 48 hours. Holistic medicine takes into account your pet as a whole. Not just "here's a stomach issues, take this medicine".
It looks at the whole picture...genetics, home environment, stress factors, diet, What's going at home (relationships) exposure to possible toxins and medical history to name the biggest ones I can think of. It may seem like a lot to weed through, but it's necessary and once again, your pet is treated as a whole. As a person who has been going to a holistic vet for 39years, I can vouch for only the best care and respect of my cat's lives. Every time I present with a new problem, I must answer some, if not all of these questions to help to root of the problem sooner. I'm used to this, so I'm well prepared and know the drill. I will also say that I was patient of his well before he began practicing holistic medicine, so I've been on both sides. My cats were some of the first patients he treated holisticly. Not all patients were. Needless to say, he's been in practice for many years but still continues his education in all fields of alternative medicine.
Please keep looking for your holistic vet on the AHVMA site. I have met people who have found their holistic vet but indeed did need to a little traveling. Maybe a few hours. If my memory serves me right, there were teleconference(are they called zoom calls now? I used to call them face time calls for updates after visits for some. IBD,Crohn's,chronic constipation/obstipation,and other digestive diseases are not only hard on our pets, but equally stressful on the owner. Chronic pet illness is all consuming.
I wish you the very best luck and hang in there. If you can find your vet, I think you'll be on your road to recovery. Much love ❤
@ Susan Murrell
I did a quick search on AHVMA's site...
There are 57 holistic vets in NY alone. One in NYC.(I didn't verify this vet's current account or information, you'll have to do that for yourself if you don't mind please, I'm just trying to help you get started. 😊)
In NJ there are 18.
I sincerely hope that gives you some help in your search.😉

Titres aren't supported here in Texas either. Very few states do but there's a movement to get titre testing made into law across the country, headed by Dr. John Robb. You can Google him of course, but he's also found on Facebook where he holds live updates on proceedings and what is happening. He used to own a Banfield Hospital and refused to vaccinate his patients with all the same dose, no matter what size they were, not giving the same amount of vaccine to an 8 lb dog as you would a 75 lb dog, etc. And only healthy pets should ever be vaccinated, never chronically ill ones. He actually stood up to the oath he took in veterinary school, basically , First, Do no harm. He's not against vaccines, just using them safely and only when immunity cannot be proven for whatever reason by titre testing...something like that. You really need to check out his Facebook page to get all this correctly. I believe he's in Vermont or somewhere close. He's a Christian man with strong moral values and beliefs in the oath he took in school. The Protect Your Pets Movement started up there and is slowly, very slowly moving down... he's fighting big pharma and Mars and everyone who bought out the pet hospitals... depending upon where you live, you may be able get titre testing through his application here sends to the U of Kansas. It's less expensive and he has the form all ready. You only need the simple blood draw to send. Go check him out on Facebook or Google him. Dr John Robb..PTP...Protect the Pets

Lettuce, fruitcake and chocolate? Sounds like a bad holiday weekend. Thanks for all you do. Never imagined my babies could suffer from acid reflux. Good information!
Oh, and just a quick note for humans but I don't recommend it for animals as I have zero knowledge about safety issues; mastic gum from Greece helps with H pylori issues. It takes a bit of getting used to but it does a great job of helping to decrease the bad bacteria. Also good for dental bacteria. Healthy people have the energy needed to take good care of their animals!
I study herbalism; I’ve been using slippery elm for my small dog for years when needed. I buy the dried powder herb in bulk, make a gruel with a tsp of powder & 1/4 cup of water, heated on the stove, stirring constantly while it turns into a gruel the consistency of honey or thick gravy, let it cool, give it to her in a syringe, 1-2 teaspoons a few times a day. It helps with vomiting, diarrhea or constipation. I think when they’ve been vomiting it’s a better option than making them swallow a capsule or tablet. It tastes good so they don’t mind. It can also be added to water or food.
What is the name of the powder slippery elm that you buy?
Please make video how to treat tiny dogs like yorkie or chihuahua on taking pills
Terry henry cream cheese worked best for my yorkie. It coats the pill well. Some dogs like peanut butter (no additives).
I've given medicine that didn't smell or taste too strong with a little bit of food or disolved in a little bit of broth.
It has to be something your dog likes, for example my dog didn't like peanut butter so that wouldn't work but he liked any kind of cheese, pieces of Turkey, homemade treats...
But, be careful what kind of medicine you give, stick with natural remedies as much as possible.
Try giving your dogs kefir, which is a probiotic. It helps make their gut healthier.
This makes so much sense to what I have been seeing with my dog. Thank you.
You’re welcome!

My dog has had acid reflux for years. It makes him miserable. I have adjusted his meals to 3 times a day. He eats raw, so low fat low protein is not going to be real possible. I do give him pepcid when its really severe and he can't get comfortable, but I try not to make a habit of it. I will try the slippery elm!
May I ask what food you feed them? I’m stressing out!
Yeah please tell
Sometimes it looks like my dog is having gas pains so I give her a Gas-X and after that she seems to be fine.. I have given her one of those once in a while if I think that she’s having that kind of a problem.
I noticed my wiener/ chihuahua mix was gagging a lot this week. Plus he has tracheal collapse. He groans in his sleep and gags so I’m thinking like the rest of the family, he has acid reflux. I started him on Pepcid tonight. 🤞🏽it gives him some relief.
Get him off on all chicken!! Treat too. Switch Ur baby to turkey and rice or chicken and sweet potato. Food allergyn
@Veterinary Secrets Dr Jones, what about baking soda? When my dog had mast cell cancer it would cause acid buildup and I would give him slippery elm, I didn't know chamomile had antacid properties, thank you... but I would give him baking soda dissolved in a little bit of maple syrup away from meals and that worked best.
Word of caution when choosing otc products, make sure they don't have any additives. For example baby medicine often have sweeteners.
baking soda can be dangerous for dogs
@@digi3363 in what sense?
It's very strange. We had to take my goldendoodle to the er yesterday. Not sure what was going on, doctor thinks he might have eaten plant that slightly poisoned him. The doctor sent him home and told me to give him omeprazole for a day. WOW, that drug made him sicker than before. He had some anxiety after taking the drug and then started acting very uncomfortable and started to act like he was swallowing air or going to vomit. Unfortunately I think he had a bad reaction to the drug.
Thats the sign of when their stomach hurts. Get him off that drug pronto
My dog gets acid reflux, indigestion off and on, and the past few days have been a little challenging for her. Tonight was the worst though. She threw up all her food a little while ago. I fed her homemade chicken soup with a fresh chicken. some rice, carrots, and celery (no spices of any kind) mid day, but apparently her stomach was still irritating her. I'm sure I have chamomile tea and will give her some tomorrow. I have some organic canned pumpkin and was considering giving her a little of that tomorrow also.
Let me know how it goes!

@@VeterinarySecrets Hello. I provided an update but it appears to be gone. Since my last post my dog threw up another couple of times so I added the chamomile tea. She's back to normal good health.

Thank you for sharing very precious information!
Hi dr. Andrew,
My dog has similar symptoms. He’s had them for a while and it has been so stressful trying to help him 😭 I’m hoping you can give me some insight here:
Can dogs develop mouth sores or sores on the roof of their mouth from long term acid reflux?
Also, do you have any recommendations for low fat, low protein food?
And is there any negative side effects to using Pepcid on dogs long term?
Thank you so much.
This is what I am doing with my dog's acid reflux. Cod fish baked, sweet potato and a lil 1/2 tespoon of just plain pumpkin
I had doctor tell me they (not sure who they are) are using Pepcid as COVID-119 therapeutic......As a 2 legged dog I use slippery elm regularly for preventative gut health.
My poodle has been on a probiotic and Pepcid.Had really helped.
What kind of probiotic ? Is the Pepcid safe to take once every single day?
Ordered on Amazon Proviable-DC probiotic for dogs/Nutramax 80 caps. One
in am.Pepcid 10mg in pm. Mix with food.
How is ur dog doing now ???
Thank you. You always help us.
Please discuss the goat's dewormer that is used for multiple pets/cost effective. Please clarify if this is what is used to treat dogs/cats by vets. Thank you!!!

Thank you for your great advice and help! My dog has a diharea and all the sleepers elm and pumpkin & probiotic I gave her, still didn’t help. What else shall I do? Thanks again for your outstanding help!
what about low stomach acid as a possible cause?
I Wuv this..🐶 Thanx Doc 😁
Thank you!
Thank you for the great information! Can I use slippery elm for dog on insulin?
Not sure if this is correct. Acid reflex can be a sign of not enough acid in the stomach. It is in humans. So by taking anti acid you make the symptoms go away but condition gets worse. Could be the same with dogs, Doc. I’m giving my apple cider vinegar mixed in his water instead. The same thing I do for me. I use slippery elm too for my dog.
Can you recommend a good low fat food? I’ve been using Royal canin low fat gi for many years for my senior chihuahua with a very sensitive stomach. She’s now switched to wet food only to further help avoid stomach problems, which it has helped - but now she’s experiencing what I believe is acid reflux. Pepcid ac seems to help a bit, but I want to avoid the problem all together. I’m curious if this food is too acidic - and maybe if there are better alternatives?
I love your videos! Do you have a video about how to increase stomach acid in a dog?
Thanks!
Recently heard of this digestion problem my friends brothers dog, and one I read about, two in one day but never heard of it before!!?? It’s cure is to have the dog eating sitting up?? I can look it up to tell you but I’m sure you know the real name you know EVERYTHING God bless you but what’s going on? Is it the foods we’re feeding them or age? 😫🙏❤️

Acid reflux is a calcium/salt deficiency...
I have a 6 months old puppy that has acid reflux. I cannot find any puppy food that is low fat and low protein, but I want to give him slippery elm. Is the dosage same for puppies? And can he just get some every day?
How is your puppy? My puppy has been having acid reflux for a month now and after so much vet bills they still don’t know they basically are just having me play with the dosage of Cisapride but he needs more protein and to gain more weight. I’m thinking of switching to a bland diet and just go from there. He is currently on puppy gi soft food but still regurgitating once a day
Since my dog has chronic acid reflux could I just give him this daily to prevent and even heal the gut?
Hi, Fr. John.. question i have to use the 3 options?😉
I thought the dose was 2.5 / 10lb TWICE daily not once ?
What about bicarbonate of soda?
So just found this video. So I have a Mini Schnauzer Boy. When he was around 2-3 years of age he would throw up almost daily white mucus. I took pics and brought him to the vet. My dog has many allergies. The vet said it was his food and that my dog does have GI issues. The vet put him on Royal Canin veterinary Hydrolyzed Protein HP. He was doing great for about 3 years. He is 10 now and its starting again. He does not throw up often but its like he is heaving almost daily. He also has allot of fatty tumors as he has aged. Anyway is there another food you can recommend or can I give him and can he take the Slippery Elm daily?
Since my cats neutering, she is continuously hungry and doesn't like to go out much anymore, do you have any recommendations ?
I use those cat treats balls. It slows down her eating.

Always, always give boops after popping medicine. Always.
my dog is 4lbs.. had a bone surgically removed from esophagus. She was always on hard food, now soft food in little meatballs. Vet is telling me esophageal dysphagia after a barium radiology study that showed no strictures or blockages. Im being told that food can collect in the esophagus while she is sleeping and she can wake up hours after she eats with the licking, gagging, retching, bringing up white spit and sounds like darth vader... I'm feeding her special prescription Royal Canin GI food, small portions, every 4-6 hours in little meatballs and holding her vertically after she eats.... She moreso has the issues in between meals, not during... How should I dose the Pepcid or the other with her small weight? I cannot put pills down her throat.. Can i mix it with her food while she eats, or does it need to be taken in between meals?
cute dog🎉
My dog doesn’t seem in pain, I’m taking him to the vet on Friday but he’s been swallowing and licking his lips. I saw something about this also being seizures, he seems coherent and can pay attention to me when he is gulping.. does this sound like acid reflux to you doc?

I'm thinking my dog might have this. He's had about 4 pancreatic attacks in the last about 3 years. We have him on 5 low fat small meals a day with his bowl raised but he'll still make hacking noises or cough noises and will burp or burp up after eating. I'm worried to give him things though because of his on off pancreatitis. We took him to the vet about it already and they said "dog's don't usually get acid reflux" :/ I'm thinking of trying slippery elm, wondering what the max dosage would be for a 50 to 60lb dog. I was thinking of giving him a lower mg pill with every meal.

Can I still give my dog Slippery elm if he is taking Prilosec ?
I’m hazarding a guess that peppermint tea may also provide some relief, or chamomile with ginger (ginger is an excellent digestive aid). And, if your pooch isn’t lactose intolerant, a little drink of milk should also provide temporary relief (I used to chug milk when my digestive problems began). But what provided a huge amount of relief for me - and basically fixed my stomach problems, unless I’m super stressed and haven’t been looking after my diet - is probiotics. Maybe you could give your opinion of these other options, Doc 🙂😉❤️
Idk about milk. Milk in humans is an acid producer. Though not sure if that translates to dogs. Almond milk is an acid neutralizer in humans, but not good for dogs.
Dr Jones, thank you for sharing free information/knowledge to help us better manage our pets health. I watch your videos about cats and follow your advices successfully. I noticed you only have a youtube video about Acid Reflux in Dogs (not cats). Does the same apply to cats? After ruling out other diseases, my 4-year old male scottish fold cat seems to have chorinic GERD. He's shown behavioral symptoms such as restlessness, licking mouth, licking paws (not like grooming but to self-sooth the discomfort), visible difficulty/heavy swallowing, stretching neck out to try to swallow, vomitting of yellow bile or clear white foam whenever he goes 6-8+ hours without food, doesn't like his mouth opened. He did dental cleaning recently and seems to have mild gingivitus but not so much that would cause him the symptoms mentioned so the vet said possible due to Acid Reflux. The doctor prescribed Famotidine 20mg tablet to administer 1/4 tablet once daily for 16 days. This will be his first time taking the tablet and I'm reading plentiful before using it to be super cautious it doesn't cause him other health issues. Are you considering making a video for GERD in cats? I saw 2 of your videos about how to treat Vomiting in Cats and seems almost the same remedies are suggested. Any tip on how to handle GERD in my furry angel would be immensly appreciated. Thank you for caring❤
My dog (who is living with Diabetes & EPI) has been burping a lot recently. Afterwards he will have this sudden ‘burst of energy’ where he runs around in discomfort, licks his lips, and starts breathing rapidly through his nose. Is this a sign of heartburn or acid reflux? I’m considering giving him the chamomile tea.
I think this is exactly what is happening with our female standard poodle. She's 4 years old approximately 50 pounds. I divide her meals into 3 a day, with a small snack at bedtime otherwise she throws up bile in the morning. I want to give her slippery elm. Should I give it to her daily or only when she shows symptoms. Added note she's always had stomach issues and can only have one type of food and no treats. Her dry food is her treat. Thank you in advance. 😊😊😊😊

Oh Chamomile tea! My dog has the stomach acid issue and her vet told me to give. 1/2 Omeprazole when she is having symptoms and it works wonders but I would rather give her something more natural. Can I give the tea every day or just when she is having symptoms? Thanks so much!!!
My dog won’t even drink the tea smh
I've seen a bunch of warnings about allowing a dog to chew omeprazole so I'm guessing they don't really want it cut in half either. I hope your dog is fine now :)

@@desirée92 how did you get it, before or after meals. Is it secure for dogs?
@@nataliajimenez3468 Apologies for the delayed response!
I don't give it to her regularly. Just when I know she's suffering from acid.
Another remedy that works is an activated charcoal capsule.
You do have to be consciousness when it's given because it absorbs everything. So 2 hours before or after any meds, etc.
I've also used Acid Sooth from Enzymatica. I would put a capsule in each of her meals.
Another option I'm looking to try is Adored Beast's pro & prebiotics. They have fabulous customer service and will help you determine the best one for your fur babe's specific troubles.
Good luck!! I know how heart wrenching it is knowing they're uncomfortable and not being able to help them feel better.

We’ve done many tests with no luck, we believe it might be either IBD or possibly acid reflux. She does lick the air A LOT and gets IBD symptoms if she doesn’t eat for too long. We’ve been managing it with a dose of Sucralfate twice daily with random episodes happening a few times a month. When she does get the episodes we give her about half a tablet, and that seems to help a few hours later but we are always looking for more natural solutions. She was eating The Farmers Dog fresh food for a while and then got tired of it, so we changed her to My Ollie fresh food, which she currently loves. Aside from that, she’s a very healthy, active and happy dog! Thank you for your help Doc!
I would absolutely love to see a response to this. This sounds like my 10yr old yorkiepoo! Sucralfate didn’t help much. She now eats raw rabbit food by Small Batch. She absolutely just have acid reflux by the licking, retching and this gulping sound that happens when swallowing, just to name a few. She eats 5 small meals a day , I feed by hand most days as it’s worse if she eats to fast, or I put it in a disk with tony divots to help with anxiety by licking more to get the food out of it. She slowly went from 8 hrs to 7 hours and now is at 6 hrs of the max amount of time between meals before her “IBS” symptoms kick in. Loss of appetite, nausea, grass eating, possible vomit which then leads to pancreatic flare symptoms. I’m sorry your pumpkin is going through this.
Has that food helped with your dogs issues?
