Abstract
Veterinarians in practice are constantly encountered with young dogs presented with a history of persistent dysphagia and/or regurgitation since weaning. Persistent dysphagia and regurgitation implies the continual inability to swallow solid foods and the pass the formed bolus normally through the esophagus to the stomach; where it is digested enzymatically and physically to a liquified state, allowing the passage through the pyloric sphincter into the duodenum.
