we got a new Boston Terrier puppy, Stella. She is so adorable and such a clown! She has the stinkiest, eye watering, clear out the room farts, though.
We switched her to a dog food called Origen and that has helped a lot. I am not so sure if it is a great brand for her because the second ingredient (after organic chicken)is chicken meal. Does anyone know of a grainless dog food that does not have chicken meal in it?
Or other suggestions for dealing with the oh so typical gas problems that goes along with Boston terriers?

lol I don't have any help to offer but had to laugh because my Boston is STINKY too. I was hoping it was a puppy thing he'd grow out of. :( HAve you asked your vet what he/she thinks?

Well my Stinky Stella problem has had a few more developments. She is so ridiculous, she thinks anything that fits in her mouth is food. So after an entire Sunday of me chasing her around trying to pull dirt, grass, rocks, bark, sticks and even a pickle out of her mouth, she is now sick. The vet has her on meds, special food, and digestive enzyme paste. She has had the runs on and off since last Sunday, poor girl. She is, of course, stinkier than ever! Other than her diahhrea and subsequent need for three baths per day, though, she is her usual happy, bouncy self!
