Hello. I am sorry Bruno isn't feeling well. Gas in dogs results in a sore painful belly, not wanting to eat, and low energy. Gas should resolve within a day, if the problem is continuing then Bruno should be seen by a vet. X-rays can show what is happening. If gas is reoccurring frequently then you can try changing the food. The mediaction you were given is ok for one or two uses however repeated uses of sorbitol can cause electrolyte changes. Discuss with your vet about options for Bruno. Good luck with him!
