It's a musical evening here with the old labrador. OMG! Worse than even my brothers ever were.

I understand. My two bassets are doing the "silent but deadly" thing. My wife says "sure, blame it on the dogs".

happens at my house also
just can't tell if its
the wife or the dog....

I have to keep dogs of varied ages - just in case. Not me!

Chuck,
I had not thought of that. I need another dog.

Something that does not work is lighting a dog's fart on fire. My sons tried this and in was a bit of a train wreck with the dog got a little riled up over the butane lighter near his butt when he was sleeping.

LOL!

wait till they wake themselves up doing it, then jump around and look at thier butt like it's something they ain't ever seen before,,, and,,,, why is that making that noise..
then walk over, look you straight in the face and burp.

Interesting that this thread was started. I was watching a movie tonight with my GF thinking about 'why' and 'so often' does my dog fart.

I wish you hadn't mentioned that! You are going to get me bit!

Not at all surprising that dr-dog-guy would surface to post on this thread. Flatulence is a way of life for him. I've been to Africa, Argentina and Uruguay with him. He was once downgraded from first class to coach on an international flight just to prevent him from being lynched by those seated near him. He owns several dogs, always keeping one at heel, just for cover. I known vets who make him wait outside while they examine his dogs.

I didn't realize you'd caught on

My old shorthair that recently passes would have some very vocal farts.

He then did the look at his rear end inquisitively like " What was that?" as we would all be bailing out of the room.

The worst ever was my old Rottweiler. He could wake you out of a dead sleep in the middle of the night.

Funny how we remember these experiences. Must be a sickness!

Went to a local SCI Banquet and the were auctioning off some Labs the Auctioneer is if you want a dog that seeps on the bed and burps and Farts buy a Lab.
Also had a Rottie that Farted , trainer said soy in the food and Table food were to Blame.

My lab used to respond to her loud farts that way. Now she just squeaks and poots with no apparent issue.

My dogs never fart they live out side.

That's how you keep them from farting?

My lab has these little squeak farts. She'll be sitting, let a little squeaker go, then she turns around looking for the noise as if she is wondering "what was that?"

Just please, please, never, ever give turkey gravey to a Golden retriever, or any other large breed dog that resides in your house. It sounds like it would be funny... its not, its so bad the dog even wanted to go outside to her kennel! Poor thing knew she was rank and couldnt stand herself. Just laying there passing fumes and looking so sad...OMG

I used to have a mini-shnauzer that would fart and look at you like he was saying "Smell that MF!" Now I have 3 brachychephalic dogs (english bulldog, boston terror, and a pug). Fart, snort, and snore.....sounds like a modern rock group name, or that of a law firm...

Do you ever sleep?

Turkey gravy? My first Golden was on an anti cancer diet - high protein and high fat. I swear he could make your eyes bleed.

Some funny sh** here.
On a positive note,try mixed vegetables in their food. Something like succotash. It has worked for a number of large dogs when it was tried. Can't make it worse.

If a dog is out side and no one smells the fart does the dog really fart.

YES

BTW- I have a few pet lizards, some of them cut loose some audible nasty ones.

Jeez, I'm glad I read this thresd I thought the political thread had moved over here.

Funny to see this. My chocolate lab ran us out fo the house last night. As she has aged, her farts have gotten worse.

I was amazed to discover that dogs really do fart when I had a largely indoor labrador.

Makes me wonder if dogs really eat homework?

Yes they do.. In addition to homework, I have seen mine eat tin foil, a frisby - and not just chew on it, several packs of hot dogs, plastic wrapper and all and assorted shoes and socks

If you think Labs fart a lot you should have French Bulldogs! But I've found if you switch around their food till you find one they like you can find one that doesn't give them as much gas.

Take a look at the ingredient in the food you are feeding your dog also. If corn is in it you are going to have gas problems. No offense to Lab owners but I've found most of them feed the cheapest food they can find and most of it is corn based (garbage IMHO). Good food is more expensive but your dog will eat less of it, your dog won't have as much gas, and it will greatlly cut down on their shedding.

I just couldn't help myself after reading all of this. Go to this site, scroll down to the "Harmonics" and move your cursor on the dog of your choice.

Enjoy!!

My eyes are watering!

Ann: I'll take doggie gas over kitty gas anytime. We have three dogs right now, my Brittany Watson, age 11, Miss Bella the Aussie, age five, and the Binkie, a small, blind mutt also age five, and they are all pretty reserved, thank gosh. But I had a lab/pit bull mutt named Aggie who would wake us up in the middle of the night. I think her awful gas made Baxter Black all the funnier in the pre-dawn darkness ...

Roadie a Rhodisian Ridgeback would leave the room his SBD farts where so wrong. So if he woke up and left you where ready to open the doors

Thank goodness! I was starting to feel like a thread killer. That is a funny site my dad sent me several years ago. I pulled it up on my bosses computer and hid around the corner with several other employees. You should have heard the cussing then the roaring laughter when he came back!!

Andy

Here ya go, guys... For a dull evening or to challenge your dog to a duel.

Farting Dogs

Ann, you have released my inner Cub Scout, and he is laughing insanely!

Every time I fart my choc lab jumps back cocked her head to the side like wtf! Cracks me up!
