Best Answer

Peristalsis is the normal rhythmic contraction of the intestinal muscles that moves ingesta through the tract - your dog cannot, by definition, be suffering from this as it is normal.

However, there are some diseases that affect movement of ingesta through the intestinal tract. Causes range from congenital disorders to infections to autoimmune disease to cancer, and the treatment options vary based upon the cause.

Your veterinarian would be a better person to ask this question of, as he/she will have a better idea of the underlying cause.
