Can dogs be bipolar?

During the course of this week I noticed my dog wouldn’t eat or bark at anyone,  I thought he was sick so I had him checked out and found nothing wrong and this morning he was just all active and happy . So can dogs be bipolar?

No such disorder has been identified for dogs despite the fact that dogs can sometimes display what appear to be sudden mood changes. However, as veterinary experts have observed this is usually a reaction rather than a biochemical imbalance that can lead to these extremes.

I used to think this. My dog has its moments as well to the point where we even brought him to the vet. The vet saw nothing wrong with him and suggested it could be he was playing with frogs so felt a little ill for a while.
