Question

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

As a breeder of Great Danes, Charlene always sends new families home with a list of diseases that Great Danes
are susceptible to and what symptoms to look out for. She is experienced in caring for dogs, but she knows that
some of her new puppies' adoptive parents may not be. One thing that is on Charlene's list to look out for is bloat,
and if the dog shows signs, to contact a veterinarian immediately. Charlene needs to add a sentence to explain what
she means. Which sentence will Charlene MOST likely add to describe bloat?
O
Inflammation of the pancreas is displayed by vomiting and arching of the back.
An excessive buildup of gas can cause the stomach to become enlarged.
A malformed femur will cause pain in the joint when a dog moves.
A contagious virus causes paralysis of the jaw resulting in foaming of the mouth.

Answer 1

Charlene will most likely add the sentence "An excessive buildup of gas can cause the stomach to become enlarged" to describe bloat¹. Bloat is a condition in which food or gas stretches your dog’s stomach, causing abdominal pain¹. It is more common in large breed or deep-chested dogs¹. Depending on the severity, bloat can be fatal if not treated within an hour or two¹.
