Mixed German Shepherd + Rottweiler's question about Inflammation of the Abdomen Due to Bile Leakage

Question

Lower Abdomen has mild swelling. No history of vomiting. Noisy breathing with inhalation longer then expiration.

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question. There are many causes for swelling in the abdomen in older dogs, including fluid build up due to liver or heart disease, or a mass of some sort. Since I cannot examine your dog, the best thing to do would likely be to have a veterinarian look at him or her. They will be able to examine your dog, see what is causing the swelling and the breathing issues, and let you know what treatment is available. I hope that all goes well.
