Like humans, dogs get hiccups when the muscles that control the diaphragm involuntarily contract.

If your dog has a short bout of hiccups, do not be concerned.

In fact, hiccups can be beneficial for dogs, as they help them to relieve gas in the stomach.

Stress and fatigue can give your dog hiccups, as can excitement.
