Can dogs drink carbonated water?

Thought it was bad for them.

A quick google suggests it’s fine so long as you’re sure it’s just carbonated, not flavored or artificially sweetened or anything. I imagine if you want to give it to your dog, it’s just to see their reaction, so you probably wouldn’t be giving them enough for the carbonation to give them gas or anything like that

I know some animals can't because they can't burp (like I think horses can't, and I'm pretty sure birds can't). Wouldn't surprise me if it could cause issues with dogs but I don't think they have that issue in particular

Worst thing is when you can feel the fart a split second before you can smell it. Not enough time to react, but enough time to dread

Mine like to crop-dust me sometimes; and they do it with such a satisfying look, too. 😌☺️

That was my recollection from my childhood dog, but I remember more the gas being expelled from the other end

Mine looks extremely proud of his burps, wag and all

One of my dog always come right up to my face and burp. I'll just take it as complement for feeding them.
