Why is there a bulge on my dogs stomach area?

He is a male pittbull/bulldog. His rib area is not enlarged, the bulge starts more behind the ribs.?

I would take him to the vet. The bulge needs to be checked out.

You need to take your dog to the vet. The dogs with a very big chest can get GDV aka bloat. It could also be a tumor of some sort. Take your dog to the vet immediately!

If it has always been there could be a herniated belly button. If it's new it could be a hernia or the things mentioned above. You should get him to a vet.

I am not an expert by no means, but I would say please have it checked. Just like a child they could have a list of things going on.

Spelling may be bad so I am sorry.
!) Herinaitated unbilical
2) ulcer
3) just inflammation
4) worst case tumor
Please take him to see his Dr. I am begging you.
