Plain yogurt with probiotics! Boxers are very, very gassy and our adopters are always apalled at first, lol. I just tell tell 1 tbsp yogurt per day keeps the lethal gas away. It always works!

If it doesn't work, you might have to change foods. Some doggies all of a sudden develop issues with their food (just to make our lives difficult).
