If your dog is experiencing restlessness and tummy noises, it could be related to digestive issues such as gas or a mild stomach upset. Here are a few considerations that might help:

Firstly, think about any recent changes in her diet. New foods can sometimes cause digestive discomfort, so it's important to introduce them gradually to avoid any issues. Additionally, if she tends to eat her meals too quickly, this can lead to swallowing air, which might be causing those tummy noises. In this case, using a slow feeder bowl could encourage her to eat more slowly and help alleviate the problem.

Regular exercise is also beneficial, as it can aid digestion and reduce restlessness. Make sure she gets plenty of activity each day. Alongside this, ensure she has constant access to fresh water, as dehydration can sometimes contribute to digestive issues.

It's also important to observe her for any additional symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, or a lack of appetite. These could indicate a more serious issue, and if they occur, it would be wise to consult with a veterinarian to rule out any underlying health concerns.

If her restlessness and tummy noises persist or if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you.
