gassy 9 mo. old boston terrier

Question
Our puppy eats Eukaneuba small bites for puppies. She is so gassy you can hear her passing gas. Constantly stinking up rooms. If it was once in awhile I could take it but this is constant. I've been told to try simethicone or acidophilus. Which one would you suggest? I have tried different foods as well. Thank you!

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend medicines for your pet because she is not my patient.  I do suggest that you have her evaluated by a veterinarian to determine if there is something wrong with her digestive tract.  

The foods she eats will make a difference, too. Try feeding her only premium foods and include canned dog food (premium).  Request that your veterinarian do a fecal exam to determine if she has any intestinal parasites that might be causing her to develop a lot of gas.
