My dog hit his stomach hard on the couch. Is internal bleeding possible?

Question

My dog hit his stomach hard on the corner of the couch. He didn't cry by I was wondering is any thing can burst or cause internal bleeding. Am I overthinking this? Pet's info: Dog | Maltese | Male | unneutered | 1 year old | 13 lbs

No, I wouldn't say you are overthinking it, you are just being a concerned pet owner! If he's not showing any signs of pain, is behaving normally, and there is no bruising or discoloration of his skin, then likely Jax doesn't have any internal bleeding or injuries :-)
