I am so sorry to hear that Benji is experiencing an increase in flatulance, as I am sure this is unpleasant for you. With no other clinical signs present at the moment, I would suggest that Benji has eaten something that doesn't agree with him. Perhaps a days worth of bland meals to help his intestines recover would be helpful. Boiled boneless chicken breast and white steamed rice are a good option, as well as prescription bland diet dog foods. I hope that this was a useful answer and that Benji returns to normal soon.

    I would consider trying a new food with a new main ingredient- eg if your dog eats mainly a chicken based food, I would try lamb or venison. If it continues or if your dog also has other signs of concern- like itchy ears or skin, licking at paws, diarrhea etc, then it could be a food allergy and your vet may recommend a prescription food.
