I am writing this thread as a warning as to what you all should never feed your Boxers. Believe me, I made the mistake. Last night I was thinking, well I really don't know what I was thinking. But anyway, I decided to cook up some home-made chili and thought that it tasted pretty good. So out of sheer dumb assedness, what was left over I gave to ABBY. She gobbled it down like it was the best thing she had ever ate. And as she was licking her food bowl to get the last bit, I began to think about the repercussions of what I had just done. Now we all know about the Boxers digestive system and how toxic their gas can be. Whoa! After an hour or so, I couldn't stand to be around her. It was like I was seeing a constant vapor trail exuding from her rear end. She seems fine today. A few little toots now and again. At least I know it didn't kill her. But, you can trust me on this. I will NEVER feed her chili again.

Besides the noxious fumes that can result from feeding human food to boxers 
I'd also worry about possible toxic-to-dog ingredients in the chili. Every chili I've ever eaten had onions in it, which are VERY bad for dogs.
Glad that was all that happened to Abby.

I had thought about doing that before, but my chili is chock full of onions, so I did not. I can imagine what the repercussions may have been like, however.
Here's another warning - if you ever buy a block of limburger cheese (the smelliest cheese there is, made with the same bacteria responsible for human body odor) to be used as part of an elaborate inside joke, if the dog is along for the ride, do not leave it in the back of the car while you run into Crate & Barrel to look for a gift for a friend.
When I opened the car door, I could feel my nose hairs curl. The cheese smelled sooooo bad. But that was nothing compared to what I got on the drive to Houston the next day...... in an enclosed space, to boot!

I wish I could see your face as that odor wafted across it! What a hoot!!!!
Lily is 3 soon, and still runs from that noise monster that lives in her bum! She's such a wuss......afraid of her own farts! LMAO And if I happen to let one slip (which is rare since ladies NEVER do that....;] ) she runs away barking then spins around and growls......if I walk by ~ a quick sniff of my rump brings on another growl, as if she is giving it a warning NOT to do that again!

if my guy eats too fast,even with digestive enzymes we add to help,it still clears the room,gulping air while eating equals silent but deadly for us
