hi i have a 4 half month old weimeraner...loving him too bits etc!!! but im paranoid over gas!! flatulance??? i have a question... how long is it ok to take him for a walk after feeding?? ive only experienced this problem once were i fed him as soon as we came back from walking, he was pining for hrs and had a lot of wind.it scared me!! .i now resort to not takin him anywere for at least an hr or two before and after feeding!! which messes our morning as we like to go walkin in morning with him before the day starts bt now wait untill i feel its ok! (but i let him out for the toilet) paranoid i know my other half thinks its silly!! am i thinking to extreme...and how bad can it affect the dogs health? i knew about this before we got him but didnt realise it would affect him within ten/ twenty mins of energetic exercise!! i read up that it can affect quite bad!!! is this true???

hi there,

i read in a weimy book it's best to wait half an hour (at least) after feeding to go for walks and to wait a half hour after walks before feeding. this gives them time to digest food before the walk/cool down after the walk. it may not make much difference with the wind though... mine let's loose no matter what she's fed, when she's fed or when she's walked. the joy of pups

It's trial and error really, we had our pooch from 6 months and we tried changing food, feed times, walkig time etc.
He's now 3 years old and we got it sorted or he grew out of it

.
Storm has two walks a day and we feed him about 1/2 - 1 hour after. The best thing we did to help is to have his food and drink bowl lifted off the floor so that he doesn't have to stress down to the floor, I read somewhere that this helps with there intigestion.
Good Luck
