Megaesophagus USED to be a death sentence for dogs (and cats). But a lady's whose dog had this condition said no to euthanasia for her dog. She invented a highchair looking contraption that has the dog sitting vertically so that gravity makes the food go down into the stomach. The contraption patented and is still in use today. She named the chair after her dog with the condition, Bailey. It's now known as the Bailey Chair. Because when feeding her dog, she would say, "Ok Bailey, get in your chair." It was Bailey's chair. 😊

My daughter has a highchair for her Pitbull who has Megaesophagus. It saved his life and he's now a happy 8 year old senior.

When your baby fluffs are so playful and always happy, and then comes the time that they're ill.. so heartbreaking moments. But you got to be strong because the smart fluff can sense it, and because fluffs are strong-hearted themselves 🥰🐶

My dog has had this for the last few months. Took a while to figure out what was going on. Shes good 99% of the time but about one-two nights every few weeks she has a bad episode where she just coughs constantly and the mucus won’t come out unless she runs around. Its currently 3 am and after 3 hours her couching and no sleep for either of us I chased her around the back yard in a foot a snow and 20 degrees for about 10 minutes. It all got worked up and now shes sound asleep. Hate seeing her suffer but love her so much. The things we do our pets 😋

Well at least Charlie is still doing well while he still can,and will soon be even better

Beautiful doggo so happy puppy I pray he gets better My dog Roxy has the same problem with eating I always thought it was gulping down her food an I started hand feeding her at one now she's eleven an 10 lbs over weight , Children an animals are a gift from GOD treat them with love .

I had a puppy with this. Unfortunately, she was slowly starving to death from the time she got off mom’s milk. She was aspirating so much we finally made the decision to put her down. I cried so hard when we had to make the decision.

Excellent fabulous friend

My greyhound has this problem. Instead of the Bailey Chair, I lay the same mat and keep his mouth open so the food will come up. It started after he recovered from Canine Streptococcus. We grind his kibbles with a ninja then add warm water. When he does regurgitates, to prevent it from passing to his upper respiratory area, thus causing pneumonia, I use my hands to keep his mouth open and the regurgitated contents won’t be swallowed or inhaled. Try lifting his food bowl by using a feeding tray. Increase his meals in smaller portions. I try to comfort him when I know he is about to regurgitate his meal. By keeping his mouth open to expel the food, it quickens the episode. Comforting him with soothing speech decreases his anxiety. Afterwards, I will feed him within an hour, but in small portions.

It's beautiful

Glad Charlie will be okay.

My daughter's Pitbull has megaesophagus, but with medications and a special high chair, he's now enjoying his life as an 8 year old senior happy dog.

I let my dog digest vertically on a pillow and donut pillow for hrs and he still chokes on his own saliva and can't walk run or play. Watha heck do I do about all of this excess saliva pls?! I've tried slippery elm for days now and don't see a difference. This is not a life

I didn't know that disease existed

my pomeranian puppy has this too.....

I never heard of that ? Is it rare ? Or common to a certain breed or breeds ? Is it a genic thing passed in from parents ?

Do dogs with Megaesophagus regurgitate all their food? Or only some of their food?

@KikiR1908

Most of the time all of their food. My dog only regurgitates when drinking water and with that his food comes out completely. But now we feed him while standing on a stool and he does a lot better now

Sound like Charlie going up for adoption

Owner is Melissa McCarthy sister?

Ok Charles...Just slow down on the foods. Your humom will feed you slowly now.
