Hi all, my 8 year old boxer, Chev is currently moaning and walking around with her tail down around the back yard as if she is in pain and laying down every now and then... she had left over pork, lamb and crackel but has never been in this pain before! any ideas to what may be going on or what we can do to help her get it out? Her heart rate is normal pace and belly does seem harder then normal... very scared, any help???

My advice is get her to a vet immediately. Any kind of digestive upset in a Boxer should be taken very seriously...they are so prone to bloat and intestinal blockages (which could be fatal if left too long). Good luck...please keep us posted

Contact your vet immediately.

In the meantime give your Boxer 100% pure canned pumpkin. Pumpkin helps with constipation if that would be the problem.

Hope everything will be ok.

i would have your dog seen by a vet pronto. and i wouldnt give her anything to eat. if it is bloat that will make matters much much worse. pork can cause bad cases of pancreatitis also and the best things for that is fasting them and having them hospitalized on iv fluids. please take her to be checked out.
