Some pets just have acid reflux due to genetics, just like people. Often-times this can be helped by feeding the pet an easily digestible diet or even just giving a higher quality dog food. Pedigree is lower on the list of quality dog foods, so you should probably start making some adjustments here first. I would suggest one of the following foods: Purina Gastrointestinal EN, Royal Canin hydrolyzed protein, Hill's Science Diet Selected protein, Victor. If this does not do the trick, then talk to your vet about doing a short course of antacids to help control the excessive acid production. Best of luck moving forward with your pet Coco. Take care!
