1). Dogs That Refuse to Eat - What Causes This and How Can it Be Resolved? By : BJones
When a pet dog refuses to eat, the problem is either physical or psychological. When a pet dog refuses to eat, his owner pleads with him and tries to tempt him with food fed by hand.

2). Hernias in Dogs By : BJones
A hernia is a bulge of tissue or bodily organ that has passed through a tear or defect in a muscular wall. In dogs, the four most common types of hernias include umbilical hernias, inguinal hernias, perineal hernias, and diaphragmatic hernias. Umbilical hernias are the most common and occur on the midline of the stomach at the belly button.
