Today, I got my dog some weight loss formula food, as she is very overweight. This new food makes her have horrible gas. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I've been on the verge of throwing up all day. Why? My dog is intolerant to grain, but grain-free dog food causes heart problems so she can't have that. Now our lives are filled with nasty farts and Hershey squirts with no end in sight. It's a rough time for us both. FML
Today, I took my dog to the vet and she was diagnosed with obesity. The vet then told me that dogs usually imitate their owners eating and behavior habits. FML
Today, whilst still trying to potty train my puppy and keep her from both peeing and pooping in the house, my lactose intolerance kicked in full fledge. Every time I pass gas, she smells poop and believes it's okay to immediately drop a deuce on the carpet. FML
Today, after being worried for a week because my dog wasn't eating, I paid the vet $120 for her to tell me that my dog doesn't like her dog food. FML
Today, my dog had REALLY bad diarrhea. I found that out when I woke up to find it all over my bed. FML
Today, I was at my girlfriend's house for dinner. Her mom gave me some seasoned cauliflower, which I didn't like. Not wanting to dissapoint my girlfriend's mom, I slipped the cauliflower of my plate and gave it to their dog. It turns out cauliflower gives their dog explosive diarrhea. FML
Today, I learned that the vomiting and uncontrollable flatulence I've been suffering from is normal with my new diet. FML
Today, I brought my new puppy home. I saw her sniffing around, so I took her outside to do her business. She simply played in the grass for ten minutes, so I brought her in. She walked in the door, squatted, and shit. She has diarrhea. This is the fourth time today. FML
Today, I finally realized why my 9-week-old puppy was going to the bathroom so much. I went to pick up the food bag and realized she had chewed a hole in the bottom, and eaten half of the bag in the last 4 days. Goodbye 30 pounds of dog food, and 100$ for a vet visit. FML
Today, my dog won’t eat the premium $30 per kilo food I buy him, but he will eat other dog’s shit. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I have the same problem except that the dog is my grandfather. And that he's not overweight, he's just regularly gassy

Give her a few days to get used to the food, sometimes changing an animals diet can take a couple of days adjusting and terrible gas/toilet breaks. If it continues, try a different brand.

Hey, OP here. To the people who say "YDI": I live in the south and it is summer. It is usually too hot for walks for me and her. She is 6 years old and still loves the play and run around. She is perfectly healthy. But now that it's fall we will definitely be going out more. We walk around the neighborhood once, get some water, then go another lap. she is definitely a happy healthy dog:)

The standard on NEEDING to slowly switch a dogs food ove the course of several days is only relevant for cheaper dog foods that have a lot of unwanted ingredients (fillers, biproducts, meals, and chemicals) if you are feeding your dog a healthy brand of food that meets certain standards, you can switch foods endlessly without upsetting their little stomachs. That said, if the gass lasts for more than a few weeks, you should consider switching to a limited ingredient diet in order to narrow down what might be causing the stomach upset. REMEMBER, your pup is no different from you on that front. you would ask yourself WHY if you were that gassy, and the poor dear might be also having the nasty gas pains that often accompany excessive gas. She cant tell you that shes uncomfortable. Something is not agreeing with her. shopping at a speciality higher standard pet food store (not persmart and such) can help you make good choices for your dogs health, as foods have to meet certain criteria to even be on the shelf at thoes places. You will not find kibble and bits, or benefil, of whatever other crap some companies try to sell as dog food in stors like red bandana or unleashed. If you cant afford much, welness brand is the best choice offered in normal pet stores.

Don't worry, it's just the fat rapidly evaporating :)
