Question Help my dog has wind

Hi can anyone help please? We've had our rescue dog for 9 weeks he is adorable but has a flatulence problem. We changed his food from duck and rice to chicken and veg which seemed to help, but it's come back again. Any help or suggestions gratefully received.

have you tried a raw diet or gotten food without any grains?

Which brand are you feeding? How about treats?

A rolled up newspaper can be an effective training tool when used properly. For instance, use the rolled-up newspaper if your dog chews up something inappropriate or has a housebreaking accident. Bring the dog over to the destroyed object (or mess), then take the rolled-up newspaper and hit yourself over the head as you repeat the phrase,"I FORGOT TO WATCH MY DOG, I FORGOT TO WATCH MY DOG!"

I had a male cat with the same problem. Changing the food did nothing. Was frequently tempted to get him a beer, a bag of pork rinds and turn on a football game for him...

LoL I can send my female cat over and they can watch the game together. Shes just getting older and we are feeding a can food that helps keep the weight on, but she can clear a room.

OMG: I think we have the same male in the house. Except I'd put on a hockey game and call him "husband".
