I thought I remembered Liver Snaps coming in the charcoal variety, but don't think I've seen them in awhile. I looked in the Drs. Fosters and Smith catalog and they didn't have any charcoal variety treats either. What they did have is a project called CurTail, a liquid which you add a few drops to your pets food and it is supposed to help digestion and thereby relieve the excess gas. For pets less than 15 lbs to use 4-6 drops per feeding. Bottle which would last for 75 feedings at that rate of consumption costs 9.49 plus shipping & handling which is 6.99. Prozyme sounds like it might be a better deal.

Yes, Genia I actually lifted her tail!
"Old Mother Hubbard" dog treats has a charcoal variety. I would go to the local pet store and ask. I know Pet Supplies Plus has a charcoal they sell in bulk, they are very large biscuits that when I give them to Shai I break them apart.

LOL
This is just too funny. There is something to be said about animal gas. Genia, you crack me up!! I think it IS a guy thing! Carrie, your husband sounds like mine. I tell you what...talk about a "mad a gas car gasser", so to speak!!! LOL He just smiles as I'm hanging my head out the window for a breath of fresh air! Although, I've noticed our cats can be awfully smelly! I told my husband that he's being a bad influence on our boys.....

I think it's fun how we can change the topic so completely, in this case from one end of the dog to the other!

I know that Boxers have a problem in their respiratory track that can cause them to snore, but I have never heard anything about this in Bulldogs! I hope you can find soem good help!!!

My pug snores so loud that it used to wake me up.
Then I bought earplugs, and it hasn't happened since!

Somehow I missed this original topic when it was started way back when. I just read everyone's posts now and am laughing out loud. You people crack me up!! Yes, the poor dogs (and cats) of the world often get blamed for the humans' deeds!!

Actually back to the original topic...I have a husband who snores like a bulldog and yes I am open to any and all suggestions!
