Hello, congratulations for Cookie. She likely has parasites in her GI tract that are causing her belly to look bloated. She should have a full physical examination and be tested for parasites. She should have a full physical examination. She should be fed puppy food so that Cookie may get a well balanced diet. Hope this helps and best of luck.
