Hello there! My name is Midge, and I am writing this page for my mom. I am 5 years old, and I live with my mom, brother Bandit, and our two cats, Gertie and Gadget. So, enough about us. Today I want to share my perspective on something that needs more discussion, because it affects all of us. No one is immune to this, including me. I am talking about those things that happen and are a silent, but deadly smell. You know what I mean, those sudden smells that can clear a room. Farts. Passing gas. Breaking wind. Or whatever you call it. And then everyone blames the dog! Personally, I am tired of taking the blame when it is not me!
This brings me to my brother Bandit. Do not let that cuteness fool you! OMG! He can be a REAL stinker! And, he just sleeps right through it while the rest of us are gagging. I am sure you have all had this experience. It is definitely not pleasant, and it is even worse when other people come over! However, there is now a solution for this silent but deadly problem.
Why the silent but deadly smell happens
First, let me give you a little background. The smell comes from the bacteria in the digestive system of every creature that lives. As the food digests, it creates gases such as: hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, methane, and ammonia. These collect in the intestine, until it is time to make their escape! Then BAM! That awful smell hits your nose! Just be glad you are not a dog like me. Because we have a much more sensitive sense of smell than you humans. Just saying.
There is another interesting thing you need to know about dogs, and it has to do with the “silent” part of this. Because of our dog anatomy, our intestine runs horizontally. This means that the “gate” and the end, i.e. the sphincter, does not need to be as strong as you humans. So the gases can be released without as much noise. You humans, on the other hand, have a rather long and winding intestine that finishes vertically. This means that the “gate” needs to be stronger. So sometimes the gate squeaks when it opens!
There is Help for the Silent but Deadly Smell
Here is the good news! There is an all-natural supplement that comes as a small treat for us dogs. We can take it directly, or you humans can break it up and put it in our food. We would prefer that you wrap it in something WAY YUMMY! Personally I prefer bacon, but Bandit will eat it in just about anything. My friend next door was telling me about this. Her humans got it for her, and she loves it that she does not get blamed anymore.
This product has ingredients like activated charcoal and other stuff. These attach to the smelly stuff while it is still in my intestine, and neutralizes the odor before it gets out! Once you give it to me, it can work for about 8-12 hours. So if you give it to Bandit and I before bedtime, you don’t have to yell at me (or Bandit) while we are sleeping. There is also a 100% money back guarantee!!!
Pssst! Also for you humans…..
My friend also told me that there is a supplement for you humans too!!! It works the same way, but it is just a pill. So please mom. Get some for yourself, and for Bandit. Especially for Bandit!
It is called a Tootralizer. And there is also a Canine Tootralizer. I know the description sounds pretty funny. But this is a serious product for a serious problem.
