Hello my dog his is around 8 year old hes a Shepard retriever mix and his stomach looks swollen or bloated but he is in no discomfort at all I've never seen it like this before but he was panting very hard due to fireworks I'm not sure if that has somthing to do and he has been very whiney for the past few weeks.

Poor Dixon. I am quite concerned about his stomach being bloated, and it could potentially be a growth of some sorts causing it. It could be he may have heart disease which also causes bloating and panting. I would take him into a vet asap to get checked out. Best of luck.
