OMG!!! I have a 5 month old boxer (female) and she FARTS ALL THE TIME... It totally reaks up my house.


Do ALL dogs do this, or have I just bought a "fart-master dog 2000?"

Welcome to one of the many joys of having a puppy!

Have fun!

No kidding! Shutterbug thought I was toxic. I'm a rose compared to Poppy!

And Squidgit, you may want to check into the Boxers. There's a story by James Herriott (he was a veterinarian back in the 30s) about a boxer that farted constantly. And apparently, that dog's farts were extremely toxic!

Think about the commercial for Puppy Chow... "Must be the Puppy Chow".

Enjoy!

As I was reading rainman's reply, Gordon farted. Sigh.

Poppy got me point blank the other night. I had to leave the room. No wonder shutterbug would gag!

too bad you cant collect all that gas into a bag and use it to power your car.
and yes, you have a Fart-Master Dog 2000

Lately Poppy has not been as toxic. We changed her food and it seems to have some effect. I think what her last owners were feeding her was making her gassy.

All dogs fart. Much of the dog food we feed them makes them gassy.

What's worse than a dog fart, I hear you ask? A cat fart, I respond.
I have a cat that has wilted about all of our houseplants with his flatulence. I am very glad that my sense of smell was impaired by years of work in a plastic factory.

Yeah. My co-worker's cat is very toxic. She also is strategic. She will get on top of the chair, wait for someone to sit down. Position her butt close as possible to the face and then turn the room green!

We have to burn candles and incense constantly to cover up the stink of the Fart-Master Cat 2000:

Careful. An open flame in an explosive environment spells disaster!

This cat looks like a reincarnation of Penny, a cat we had that died in 2001. Oddly, she was a known farter as well (though nowhere near as bad as Smokey, our current farty feline. He has some tummy issues I think that contribute to his prodigious methane output.)

Maybe a change in diet is in order.

Would be worth a try. It seems to have worked for Poppy.

It's usually the case I think, My cats had the worst smelling crap on earth when I changed their food. Usually it's stealth smelling crap, which was purely undetectable. So I quickly changed back to the previous brand, and all is well.

It's all with the meat protein.
Depends on what kind of protein you give them. If it's veggie protein, you may as well set fire to the house.
I changed my cats from 9 lives to Fancy Feast, it cleared the problem right up. Unless Sammy eats turkey...then all bets are off and goodbye living room.

My fiance reports that Meow farted the other day and he freaked himself out, and looked at his own butt as if something had messed with his butt.

A friend of mine used to have a small Feist mix dog, and one day he was standing near me and farted, pretty loudly for such a small dog. He turned and looked at his butt in complete surprise like, "What the heck was that?!"then kind of turned around as if looking for the source of the noise. I wish I'd caught it on video or something.

Our dog was licking her ass and farted on her own toungue, it scared her cause she didn't know what the hell happened. I almost pissed myself laughing.
