The dogs are stinking the house out quite litraly,

we get free turcky carcasses from a farmer, pick them up everyweek,
saves us money and him, as he has to pay for them to be removed,
as we might be going up tomorrow, i decided today to give all the dogs some of the carcasses, for there meal - empty the freezer a little, there all cut in to quaters, so its easer to feed and it dosent take them all day to eat it, now there all farting and burping like troopers

Mine stink if they have had chicken and they really do stink

Hi Chook, can I ask if the turkeys have been slaughtered on the farm or are casualties that have died for some reason? If they have just died, then the reasons for their death could have an effect on the dogs, allbeit temporarily. Don't mention where the farmer is as he's not supposed to do this if they have just died, and the repurcussions can be severe.

There slaughtered on the farm alan,he has his own slaughter house
dont worry i would never ever give the dogs anything that had died with out a reason,
hes only a small time farmer, only has around 40-50 turckys at a time, but gets a lot more during the christmas period,
a few cows and a couple of pet sheep, that he breeds from, for his own table,

hes actualy qute good, as he will sort the good from the bad, and will put the carcasses in a clean bin for us, so they dont get contamanated, and then helps us bag them

Joe, our Lurcher suffers from quite bad flatulence but only at night time and he sleeps
in our bedroom.. It doesn't make any difference what he has eaten it just seems
that when he relaxes his guts start working overtime:S .

Can't say Ive ever noticed our lot being particularly offensive in the gaseous dept. Ours have chicken carcass nearly everyday, that said they get fed last thing at night before bed, so they are outside while it's digesting !

Wish we had free local supply like that !

yeah - it is always evenings and during the night when the stink starts - just when you are ready to relax after a hard day

Have you tried the small local farmers shops, most do slaughter on site,
as it can work out cheeper, or some of the slaughter houses, there a few round hear,
that do sell stuff for pet food,
we also have a local poltery factory - that sells there carcasses pound a bag,
and there large bags, they only charge as they are ready bagged, if i didnt get the turcky carcasses i would be rinnging them up, but dont have the room for both.

We are quite lucky with ours. Lockie can have flatulence but it doesn't smell. Thank doG is all I can say as he lets off some rippers mainly when he is stretching
Very rarely do they have smelly ones and when they do it must be from something they have eaten like possum or roo poo.

Believe me we have looked ! It's sheep country, so we get plenty of lamb breast from the local butcher/slaughterman. But there's really no chicken farms - too many bloody foxes round here !

It seems to make no difference to our dogs what we feed them we vary what they get and they still stink

Murphy doesn't fart - he is much too posh for that!!! However, Paddy the terrier trumps for England and again, always at night and it is vile! Poor Murphy has to share a room with him

Actually, Turkey gives humans wind too!!! Just think of Christmas afternoon!!!!!

I thought that was down to the stuffing and the sprouts !!!!

Probably a bit of both, it is quite rich Turkey. We usually have turkey torpedoes to clear up Boxing Day (dogs, nut us!!)

I just think some dogs are just windy, as I say, no matter what Murph eats, he never does it, well sometimes a noisy one when he stretches, but NEVER a smelly one!

What a conversation

The smelliest one in our house is Charlottes darned Whippet 'Ells bells. You wouldn't think something as small as her could produce such a toxic smell, YUK!

Yep... my girls can fart for England

Daisy May is rather posh and does little ones and then tip toes off

Elsie grey will save hers up and release them at the most inopportune moments... usually when there are guests here...and she will let off a proper clapper and then walk off and leave poor Daisy May to take the blame

At a show once Elsie Grey, very LOUDLY belched right in the judges face (I really must teach that girl some manners!)

Femails always "fart more than the chaps" it's a known fact !!

I have to say that is NOT true in the human species

U Sure !!

Without a doubt
