I have a pervasive personal problem.

[undeterred]

I switched my dog to a new food about a week ago for safety's sake and because he really loves it. The problem? He farts, all day and all night. I never hear a thing, but I live in a world of silent but deadly, chicken and oatmeal scented dog farts....

[Droopy]

1. Doesn't sound very safe to me

Do you smoke?

[undeterred]

4. No, but I guess I should steer him away from the gas stove.

[NC_Nurse]

2. Hahahaha!

Dog farts are the worst!

[MonkeyFunk]

3. umm....

yeah, sure... blame the dog. :eyes:

[undeterred]

5. yeah, he probably posted the same thing about me

except he's a male dog and I think he thinks farts are cool (he snickers at the fart jokes on Stephanie Millers show)

[Hugin]

7. My dog certainly does...

The other response is turning to the source of the atmospheric disturbance with a
mock look of surprise on her face... Like, :wtf: .

:rofl:

6. Change his food again. I use Innova Evo (for cats) and I think

you can also give it to dogs.

My cat has never had a problem like the one you're dealing with!

8. Happens to all of us when we get over 50. nt

11. He is over 14- in human years about 102

so thats twice the trouble. Maybe BEANO will help.

[valerief]

16. Beano is incredible! nt

[Lil Missy]

17. Boy does it.

I'm just sayin' ... It's a good thing my partner loves me.

9. I once drove from Vermont to California with two Boxers

In December so the windows were mostly up. :nuke:


I can completely relate.

[AlCzervik]

10. that happens to me when i forget my lactaid pills--i usually have to go upstairs

close the door and open the windows. "Do not go in there!"

[seemunkee]

12. Beano

We put a couple of drops in our big dogs food and it really helps

[SPKrazy]

13. Don't light any matches or lighters...

you could have a HUGH!!!!!1111 explosion

I'm SERIES!!!!!!111111

it's bad, really bad :P

chicken and oatmeal scented farts. No wonder that d00d didn't reply to your e-mails, he could tell you had a stinky dog :rofl:

:pals:

[undeterred]

14. Do you think my emails and posts are stinky?

I'm sure the day will come when we can send a scented email...

[SPKrazy]

15. wouldn't that be cool...

ewwww :yoiks:

here comes a stinker!

:rofl:


edited to add: NO I DO NOT THINK YOUR POSTS ARE STINKY AND I'VE NEVER GOTTEN AN E-MAIL FROM YOU TO KNOW!

:hi:

18. someone on DU wrote about this and suggested buttermilk.

I have been pouring a little over my dogs food once a week for a month or so and it helps cut down on the deadly air biscuits.
Doesn't hurt to have a glass myself. ;-)

[havocmom]

19. If the dog tolerates dairy, GOOD yogurt can be a help too.

Most mutts love yogurt or buttermilk.

20. have you tried wellness? i swear by their food.

sorry about your pervasive problem :P

[undeterred]

21. No, I haven't heard of wellness? Where do you get it?

I'm not sure if he'll adjust to this food- its only been a week- sometimes a change in diet can cause things to upset. At least he isn't having diarreah. He has a great appetite and he loves the food so that part is really good. I good do with a little less gas, but I don't think he is having any discomfort really.
