Salmon Oil, Food, & Gas

[Jack Daniels]

I too give Jack two pumps of Salmon oil with each meal.
His farts are deadly ....they smell like (close your eyes and breath in) raw chicken with hard boiled eggs......


Until reading this thread, I didn't think about the cause of the farts...
I just figure all Bulldogs are farters........

Besides, I don't mind when he farts....
My wife and Kids have this game going on most nites where they bet each other who will do the dishes if they guess correctly who threw the fart. Jack or Me...

I started salmon oil 3 weeks ago. No increase in farting. However, the decrease in shedding is amazing. No more dry, flaky spots either. Her coat is super shiny and soft. Lola already had salmon in her food, we feed Fromm Surf and Turf, so maybe she was already used to it.

Sounds like you live at my moms house....she is always saying her hubs is blaming Gracie for his gas! And I think we both know Girls don't Some one told me to try the fish oil pills instead of the actual oil and they may take care of the . Did you notice a difference in his coat and shedding after you started the fish oil???? The gas doesn't bother me that much either...Coops farts are like a breath of fresh air ..... although we did go on a mini vacation and he came with and lets just say we had to roll down the windows in the truck like every 10 minutes!I could live with the gas but I do wonder if his tummy is hurting because gas stomach pains are not fun!

Did you notice the less shedding right away because so far I see no difference on Coop!

If I remember, it takes at least a few weeks before you can really notice the effects of the salmon oil. Guinn has been on it since we brought her home as she had terribly dry skin. She gets 2 squirts every morning. She has a flake-free, shiny, and very soft coat. Anyone who pets her comments on how baby soft she is.

The thing I do know about giving too much salmon oil is that it can cause the runs. Not sure about gas. But it all comes from the same end, so there might be some connection there

Could be could be! I wonder if I am just being too picky because Cooper really doesn't shed a lot and he has good skin and I think he is pretty soft....that is until you pet his sister she is very soft but they have 2 totally different coats! No runs here thank god! I am just afraid with all the gas one day he is just going to explode!

I've heard that canned no sugar added pumpkin helps with gas

Grains are an issue for bullies and chicken, well there are a lot of bullies allergic or have some sensitivity to it. Banks is highly allergic to chicken - hives if she has any. And, I notice her yeast issues and tear stains are pretty much gone since taking potato out of her food.... Fromm Beef Fritatta is the winner. Also, think about getting the full blood screen alergy test done -- takes the guess work out of it.

As for the --- it is probably the oil. We use the fish oil pills --- no gas

No, it didn't happen right away. I noticed the shedding was better by the end of week 2, and now it's much better by week 3. It was very noticeable to me since I wear a lot of black and those little white hairs get stuck everywhere!

Boozy was on fish oil and salmon based food when I adopted him and his farts were a pphhthh of death. (Made for a long car ride home) Once he was off fish oil and on only hypoallergenic food the death farts disappeared and only pphhthh of eye watering gas remained, which was a huge improvement. Dermatologist told me that a lot of dogs are sensitive to fish of any sort.
