Busderpuddle Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I have been giving Ruby a frozen turkey neck once or twice a week for years now. The last month or so I have noticed that the nights after giving her one, her toots are so bad our eyes are watering and the paint peels off the walls. Does any one else have this issue when feeding the necks ? She loves them too much to take them away and they help her teeth, but is there something I could do to her kibble that night to avoid being run out of my own home ? It is getting repulsive and the house reeks. Quote Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedlenoseJake Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I know they sell anti-gas supplements at the pet stores. Maybe you could feed one with the necks? I've never used them myself so I can't say if they work. Quote Photographer in Phoenix, AZ www.northmountainphoto.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeh2o Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Interesting! I have no clue, mine have never had the toots from turkey or duck necks. What were those turkeys eating?!

Guest Johberry Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 I'd like to give turkey necks to our boy once a week as well and am hoping he won't have the same gas issues! I wonder if Ruby has a turkey sensitivity? Our boy didn't have a good reaction to chicken-based kibble so I'm very hesitant to give him any raw chicken. I'm also curious if there are other owners with hounds who get bad gas from turkey/turkey necks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleptogrey Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 stay away from things like that- as you mentioned in another food post she's not eating. well, could she have an upset stomach from the turkey neck? that stuff goes right thru my dogs. rice/boiled beef or chicken and eventually some kibble once her tummy settles down.

KickReturn Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) That's the opposite of what we have. Hester gets a huge turkey neck every day for lunch.The more raw and bone, the less gas we get. Hester would be usuitable as a pet on a kibble diet - I know because we tried. Maybe try oxtail. That way you'll know if it is a raw thing or just a turkey thing. Also good for the teeth and Ruby will love it.

Busderpuddle Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share Posted December 13, 2014 I have never tried oxtail but she is allergic to beef so I would be worried to try it and she will probably get gas and diarrhea from it. I have tried raw chicken breast and legs but I am not ready to try a raw diet. Quote Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
