Does rubbing a dogs belly help with gas?
I recommend all large breed and giant breed dog owners keep simethicone on hand for an emergency home treatment for bloat.

Whether in humans or dogs, massaging the stomach can encourage stools and gas to move around in the colon. This can help relieve the feeling of being bloated or having gas. Just remember to use gentle circular motions on the stomach.07-Apr-2021
