German Shorthairs, Camping and Kennel Gas.

Now we were spending a week in the tent and sharing our sleeping bags with the dogs. No running water, we would bring a couple five gallon jugs. So needless to say we would be a little gamey ourselves. Let's remember those pointers were sharing our meals with us. Why eat dog food when there is bacon, eggs and camp taters. Well this change in the shorthair's diet caused them to get a bit gassy to say the least. The dogs had no problem ridding themselves of their gas problem in the sleeping bags at night. Hence the phrase "kennel gas" was born. Let's think about this for a minute. No showers, kennel gas, heavy hunting clothes, some beer and our own gas, we probably didn't smell like a lilac bush for sure.
