The dog's stomach is where food arrives after the dog has swallowed. In dogs, the stomach is where the first stage of digestion takes place. Digestion is the process by which food is broken down into its simplest components, ready to be absorbed into, and utilised by, the body. The lining of the stomach secretes hydrochloric acid, mucous and digestive enzymes, and stores the food during this first stage of the digestive process. A churning action of the strong, muscular stomach walls mixes the stomach contents all together. Finally, when the mixture has reached a thick, milky consistency, (this liquid is called "chyme"), and the initial stage of digestion has been completed, the stomach regulates the flow of the chyme into the duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine.
Mechanical and chemical digestion of food .
Dogs are mainly carnivores, means they need meat in their diet. Another answer: Dogs do not have the digestive system required to live on a vegetarian diet. They neither have the four chambered stomach of a cow nor do they have the large digestive area in their large intestine like a horse. Instead they have a relatively small digestive system. They could not live on a vegetarian diet.
Yes but don't feed them burgers if it has onion in it because that can upset their stomachs, not even onion flakes. it still upsets the digestive system. Actually onions cause hemolytic anemia in dogs which really why you should not feed them onions. Does nothing to the digestive tract.
yes Yes, but make sure it is not hot, and free of bones. Turkey bones can splinter, and tear up a dogs throat, stomach, and digestive system. It would be best to stay with feeding a dog no "people Food" altogether, but should have no problem with special treat from time to time.
I do not think so, but why give it to a dog in any case. Dogs have a digestive system that is made for meat. They do not digest vegetables as easy. Chocolate is poision to them. Tea however... I do not think this pose as a threat as such. Regards.
This condition is called "bloat" and it means that the stomach and/or part of the intenstines have become twisted, preventing material from passing through. Sometimes it also cuts off blood circulation to the affected parts of the digestive tract. It is a life threatening condition and needs immediate treatment. It tends to affect dogs and horses with deep chests more than those with shallower chests.
The point is to digest things
Its function is to digest food (mechanically and chemically), absorb nutrients and dispose of solid wastes.

Dogs are monogastrics. Cows are ruminants. Monogastrics have one simple stomach: Ruminants have a complex four-chambered stomach.
Dogs are said to be able eat almost everything, but it is advisable not to feed your dog oily food. The oil can upset a dog's stomach and cause vomiting or diarrhoea, as the oil acts as a lubricant in the digestive system.
They break down in the acids.
Adding oil to your dogs food is something that can cause stomach upset. The oil gets stuck in the intestines, and can cause diarrhea and other digestive issues.
NO dogs are not allowed to eat grapes because it is bad for their digestive system.
It's not recommended !... Just as people can be lactose intolerant - a dogs digestive system does not always cope well with dairy produce.

Yes, Ivan Pavlov was researching classical conditioning at the time of its discovery. His famous experiment with dogs, where he conditioned them to salivate at the sound of a bell, led to the development of classical conditioning as a psychological concept.
Dogs frequently have salmonella in their intestinal tract. Unless a dog has a weakened immune system or problems with his/her digestive tract, you shouldn't worry about your dog contracting it. But dogs are not immune to it so they can contract it.
