Lots of gas *peee-uuuuu!*

[HeavenlyJumper]

How much gas is normal for a dog?? Please tell me about one nasty toot per hour (sometimes more) is normal. Wyatt is a stink factory!! He goes potty and it is very normal. He doesn't get people food, just his nutro ultra puppy kibble and liver treats...

Can we do anything about the stinking cloud that follows our puppy!?

[GSDNewbie]

its not normal most times it is from dog food with great amounts of filler or something being fed to them not agreeing with their digestive system

[gsdjordyn]

What are you feeding him??

maybe its the cookies... CLUE: The cookies had carob in them, a chocolate substitute.

The only thing he gets is his kibble (nutro ultra puppy) and his liver treats. That's it. Hmmm?

[GSDNewbie]

i dont know what are the ingedients of his kibble?

Good ingredients for a commerical food.

Just like people some dogs get more gas from some varieties of food then others do. You could try changing foods to see what works best for him. Make sure if you do the ingredients are just as good if not better then those. Remember ....do not buy foods that have " meat -By products " "Animal Fat " "Tallow "... these are all bad, if you can't identify what you are feeding then don't feed it.

Didn't you just recently change his food?? Could be he just has not yet totally adjusted to it.
Clifford is a F ART factory!

[GSDNewbie]

Is he used to the liver treats, some dogs get very stinky on liver or liver treats. My dogs will have evenings when you would like to leave the house lol.
