A: If your dog has an ulcer it is likely that your veterinarian has already recommended Pepcid AC or something similar to block acid production. There is also another medication that is used to coat the stomach and will help heal the ulcer. During the time that the ulcer is healing, be sure not to use any anti-inflammatory drugs for animals or for humans including aspirin. A bland diet may be best for your dog and avoid any acidic foods.
