Gassy older dogs?

My chihuahua will turn 9 in June. Over the past couple of months she has become very gassy. And what makes it worse is that they are smelly too Chat Icon Her diet hasnt changed at all so it's not related to that. Is this usual in older dogs? Anything I can do to make her less gassy?

Re: Gassy older dogs?

It could be her food. Even though its the same kind, maybe it's a bit too heavy for her now. Our stomachs change as we age so I would imagine so does theirs.

I would check with your local pet food retailer. I wouldn't go with a big chain store tho only bc they don't always KNOW the answers to these kinds of questions. Try a smaller, owner operated place. They may have some advice
