i have a better question..........once they start, what can u give them to stop?  and what is best way to prevent them?  is there something i can put in her food to avoid this??

usually it comes down to the food you are feeding them. when i had rocky and annie on the royal canin, although it is a good quality food it made them very gassy. sometimes i had to leave my own bedroom in the middle of the night because i didnt have a gas mask ! i now have them on the chicken soup and they dont have the gas problem anymore.    

thanks dusty.  maybe ill try chicken bullion every now and then.   

LOL i never thought of it that way. I never really knew that farts sometimes means they need to use the restroom.

I can't find any place that haas chicken soup around here thats why I was asking.

Thats why I can't find any kinds of these dog foods. Dallas does have feed stores. The other 2 types of dog food I would put trinity on is pedigree or nutro.

Nutro Ultra has acidophilus in it, which will help.

A tiny tablespoon of active yogurt on the food will help with digestion.
The Watcher has some darn fine Labradors, he has a point [about making them go out and doo-doo.]

In yogurt, there are cultures that transform milk to a solid, yogurt form.
"Made with active cultures: FDA regulations require that all yogurts be made with active cultures. Only those that are not heat-treated, however, retain live and active cultures when they reach consumers."
