Advice from dog ownersHi all. I know lots of you have dogs and was wondering if you had any ideas about my friends dog. He is 14yrs and as bouts of wind ever so often. He then wants togo out which she takes him and the moment she goes back to bed tries to get her attetion by stracting at the door. He is fed on the same food and she doesnt alter it at all. He has begin to the vets about it, he also doent sleep very well. Have you any ideas of what you can give him to help is wind, she thinks its that what keeps him awake at night. jane

Would charcoal buiscuits help? Maybe she should consider changing his diet as these things are usually conected. What does she feed him? Maybe a gluten free diet would help. |

I personally would never feed any dog (or cat) Iams, apart from the ethical issues I don't think it is a very good food. So diet would be an obvious one to change. Burns, nutro, autarky are all good food and natural ingredients. She could try adding a spoonful of bio yoghurt to the food. Some deep chested dogs are more prone to wind and it may help to feed from a raised bowl. I find tripe sticks & pigs ears give my dogs wind!! |
