ok so here is the story my dog(german-shorthair) loves rawhides, and well i'm beginning to believe that they are giving her gas, and bad. I was just wondering since i don't want to not give her rawhides if i could just give her beano or something like that? My sister also has the same problem with her pitbull, and we don't know what the reason for that is except maybe his digestive tract, but something has to be done about it. Any suggestions?

No don't provide your dog beano frequently when a canine is switched diets their stomachs may just end up upset. I say you return to what you were firstly feeding him then get a greater food equivalent to Orijen, solid Gold, Or Innova Evo these are good brands put just right meals with the historic crappy stuff and steadily discontinue adding the crap in any respect. This will likely help with the changing of his diet. Don't purchase any grocery retailer manufacturers equivalent to Science eating regimen, Iams, or pedigree it is all junk filled with corn and wheat. Again don't just exchange foods immediately regularly change the meals by decreasing the amount of crappy meals he's eating. I don't care what your vet says about Science weight loss program or Iams vets usually get offers for recommending special manufacturers for this reason you get a shady suggestion and if that is the advice your vet is giving you it's time to change your vet. Digestive enzymes help dogs with digestion and have many other benifits to help in your puppies total wellness this can also be bought in a pet store. Sure they do make merchandise for puppies for upset stomach however I have no idea these products given that I've not ever had to use them. In case your canine remains to be sick in day after today or so get him to a vet on your field there is also different underlying situations such as digestive blockage or worse however like whatever scientific the sooner you catch it the better the likelihood that it can be treated.First of all you ought to assess a few things to determine if that is fairly just an upset belly, or some thing more critical. If that you would be able to reply sure to any of the next questions i'd propose you to search veterinary care. Is your dog vomiting? If it is vomiting, is there any blood in the vomit? Is your canine Dehydrated? To investigate, pull a pinch of free dermis away from your puppies neck. The skin should ping again immediately. If it stays raised for a second, or retracts slowly they're dehydrated. Is there any blood within the feces? Has your canine been sick for greater than twenty-four hours? Does your canine feel scorching? Ie, they've a temperature. Is your dog obsessively drinking? Has your canine eaten a toxic substance? The final protocol for dogs vomiting or with diarrhea is to speedy these puppies for no less than 12 to 24 hours. Pups should now not be fasted for greater than 12 hours, regularly the entire night will suffix. The speedy will consist of no food or treats. Water may just extra upset a vomiting canine, so ice chips could also be a excellent substitute except the canine feels better.If the dog is having everyday liquid squirts of diarrhea or continuos vomiting,the percentages of becoming dehydrated are exceptional. You may also help by way of giving some unflavored Pedialyte. If the dog is vomiting constantly providing water may extra motive vomiting making the drawback worse. After the 12-24 hour fast present a bland weight loss plan composed of boiled rice and fowl or boiled rice and hamburger. In the event you selected fowl be certain the epidermis is taken off. In case you decide upon hamburger make sure the fat is drained off. Be certain the rice is the bulky a part of the meal.Offer this in three-four small meals during the day. I strongley urge you to look a vet to your area proper away if the canine is sick for more than 24 hours. The altering of the diet can also be put into play after the canine is better I once more strongly propose digestive enzymes. Rhonda C you should supply your dogs to any person who wishes to spend their cash to care for them or can manage to pay for to promote better wellbeing in their animals. You should get your self a stuffed animal or a pet rock. With answers like that I consider you possibly can more commonly forget about these things too however pedigree sucks and Iams shouldn't be luxurious in any respect it is simplest costly for the crap they provide you with and its simply as so much crap as pedigree. Your animal will devour quite a few this meals due to the fact it goes proper through them and provides little to no nutritional price.

Beano is an enzyme that, for lack of a better term, predigest the food and helps to reduce gas. I don't think it will hurt them but do you want to give them beano every time you give them a chew?? BUT ASK YOUR VET. find ANOTHER CHEW for them. I used to have my butcher save a really BIG leg bone when he did a whole cow and I would cut off the excess fat and my dog had a bone as big as she was and loved it. And since it was raw it wasn't as likely to splinter. But I only let he have it for a day,....I was afraid it would start to stink.

I read in a nutrition book for animals that you can use papaya tablets (you can buy them at a health food store) or real papaya for this problem. It has digestive enzymes in it, tastes sweet, and is good for dogs. (This also works for some humans...)
They worked wonders for our dog! What sweet relief! (Pun intended! LOL! ;-) When you buy them, take a look at the list of ingredients and make sure they only include papaya and a binding agent.
Start out with a *small* amount and work up. You probably only want to give them enough to stop the smelly problem--since papaya given in larger amounts can also act as a bit of a laxative.
P.S. Our dog preferred the tablets over the fruit--she would beg for them.
Also, Kalin is right. If you feed your dog a higher quality of food the problem is usually solved.

I really wouldn't do that if I were you. I know it's easy to just give the animal something around the house that you think will work, but you really don't know if it can be tolerated by "your best friend". I believe you can go into any veterinary place and get what you need for your dogs gas.
