She doesnt let me sleep sometimes because of her smell, why does she let out so much gas?

It is her diet..Avoid all kibbles with corn (doesn't digest) soy, (beans!) beet pulp (pushes the food through without allowing it to fully digest)
If the problem remains after you switch her kibble, then put a spoonful of plain yogurt on her food to aid in complete digestion..
I recommend feeding Canidae, Innova, Solid Gold, Wellness, Natural Balance, or Wysong.. These are available at most local pet supply shops.
The premium kibbles cost more per bag, but less per month, as they eat less and waste(poop) less..

I would recommend contacting your vet about this problem. It's possible that just changing her diet (gradually, so she doesn't get diarrhea) could solve the problem. It's also possible that she's allergic to the food or an ingredient in the food you're giving her, in that case an allergy test may be necesary.
If you're feeding her people food, you may want to cut down on the amount or stop it completely.
Are you feeding dry, canned, or a mixture of both? If you're giving canned food, this could be the cause.
Again, the best thing to do is ask your vet.

Maybe you should change its diet, try giving your dog a premiun pet food, if your dog is really energetic, goes for long walks, do lots of exercise he will need more protein, if he stays home all day long with minimal exercise try foods with less protein, it is all in the foods lebel.
There is a few good brand out there, I am still looking for one that best suits my dogs needs.

Do you give her rawhide? Rawhide often makes dogs gassy & also gives runny poop because they can't digest it properly.
Also for the same reasons, a high-quality food might help. Try:
California Natural
Canidae
Innova EVO

feed her a higher quality dog food with less fat such as natural choice available at petsmart. we had this exact problem with our golden too. food with less fat doesnt make them so gassy i guess =]

i would look into putting her down, although there are other options you could put her on a all veggie diet that will make the gas not stink so god awful but it will probably kill the dog, you could make it a outside dog but its coming up on winter depending where you are at in the country and that will probably kill the dog, or yo could put a cork up the dogs..... well use you imagination but that would probably kill the dog, so I'm going to have to suggest to kill the dog. find a good taxidermist and you can have the best of both worlds, good luck
