Why Your Dog's Fart Stinks


A dog with a stinky fart is certainly a bummer! If you have been dealing with your dog’s gassiness frequently, you should find out the underlying cause so you won’t have to endure these ‘scent bombs’. There are many factors that can cause excessive gassiness in dogs. Gas in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is a normal by-product of the process of digestion and metabolism. Excessive gas buildup, however, can be caused by consumption of gas-forming foods, indigestion, feeding table scraps, and sudden switching to a new type of pet food. Cabbage, beans, cauliflower, and brocolli are some foods easily undergo fermentation in the GIT, resulting in the build-up of gases and stinky farts. Switching to a new diet without observing a transition period can lead to digestive upsets and gas buildup. 

If you have an issue or concern with your pet’s gassiness, you should make an appointment with your animal hospital Plano, TX.
