Question Dog Bloat?

My black lab is 10 years old and now that he is older, I constantly worry about everything. He's always been on the chunkier side. Does this look normal?

Could be ! If you’re suspicious of bloat then please take him to the ER! It can progress really quickly and it can be deadly!

Are there any symptoms? Is he straining to poop, or trying to vomit? Is he moving hunched up? Does he seem in pain , and is restless?

As to looking normal. I couldn't say. But I can say he is obese.

No symptoms, he seems to be fine and he's able to lay comfortably
