Sometimes it's difficult
to be around even the sweetest dog when the old gas
machine kicks into high gear. Flatulence (passing gas)
in dogs can be due to a variety of factors. In some
cases, it may be because the food a dog is eating has a
vegetable content that is too high. In others, it may be
because a dog is getting too many table scraps.
A switch to a new diet
or a ban on scraps may be all that is needed to address
the problem, so everyone can breathe easier. Giving the
dog a supplement that includes yucca extract or similar
gas fighting ingredient can also help, as can giving the
dog charcoal biscuits. If the problem persists, a
veterinarian should be consulted to rule out any
underlying causes of the gas.
The
products Pet Supplies “Plus” carries in this area
include Eight in One Excel Gas
Preventative, St. Jon’s Healthy Companion Gas-Aid and
Veterinarian’s Best Gas Buster Doggie Bites.
