Our 10 year old soft fat lab stinks, she seems to be constantly breaking wind....
Same dry dog food as ever, and no tit bits, well not many anyway, the odd crisp that Miss Vamps accidentally drops on the floor.....
Any thoughts on how to reduce this or is it an old age thing?

If they don't work orally you can always try sticking one in the offending orrifice to see if that will filter out the offending gasses, but for christ sake don't stand in the fireing line! :o ;)

I'm thinking that coal wouldn't be as edible so, therefore, best used directly as a filter! ::)

Back on topic for the OP, mind you it might work with humans as well.
We have had 3 boxers over the last 12 years or so and they all suffered from the dreaded doggy flatulence >:(
We were told to raise the level of their food, I don't mean protein but to raise the level of the feed bowl to just around shoulder height.
[pedant mode on]this stops the dog from having to extend the neck down to the food, which in turn stops them from gulping air and food at the same time, which in turn stops them from......[pedant mode off] you get the picture :y
I can confirm this does work very well. Boxers are renowned for their evil quietness :o
