Re: Flatulence (the natural gas)
Best thread ever. I'm glad to know that it's not just our dogs who have gas. Our golden retriever occasionally does the 'who me?' thing and leaves the room. The others just own up to theirs mostly. hehehe
Our cats do it too. Our oldest, Sadie (Sexy Sadie from the Beatles song) will rip one off that would work for pepper spray in a pinch.
We feed a really high quality kibble for both the dogs and cats. No grains, all natural ingredients etc. We consider it preventive maintenance and so far it's worked out really well with the added benefit of smaller amounts of scat to deal with. Unfortunately the side-effect is noxious gas.
But still the worst gas I can ever remember came from my college roommate after a night of drinking cheap, draft beer at a party. It literally cleared out a large drafting room, even the teacher. At that point the teacher instituted a $2 "fine" for all gas incidents to go along with the $.50 and $1 swearing fines. He had no choice really, we all drank cheap, draft beer all the time.
