Does my puppy have a bloated stomach?
Hi, i got a puppy yesterday and it looks like it has a bloated stomach although he seems in no pain and his belly isnt hard. He is also going toilet ok so maybe im just paranoid.
Its 11 weeks and its a jack russell.

Yeah he has been wormed, although i was told that it will only kill the live worms not the worm eggs so he could have more now i suppose, his doo-doo doesnt look like it has worms.:thumbsup:
It looks healthy enough to me.
Is it just after eaten or all the time?
Hi, i rang the vet today and got an appointment next tuesday, i didnt mention the bloated belly as i thought it was ok as he doesnt seem in any pain at all and when he lays down he gets comfortable easily.
I think ill take him to the vets tomorrow just to get a quick check up
well, we know who not to give puppies to!
I cant see no grains of rice in his poop or near his bum. Also i dont know when he was last wormed, i forgot to ask, i will call tomorrow to find out.
Is there worming products i can buy in the shops that will work ok?
A puppy will have worms if the mother had them. I would advise you to get tablets from your vet, you will need to know the puppys weight and you don't need to see the vet for this, just ask at the desk for a puppy worming tablet.
Hope this helps.
