Probios Digestive Support Powder for Pets, 240 g

Our 13 year old terrier was diagnosed many months ago with Cushing's Disease. As our veterinary hospital continues to adjust her daily meds to the correct level for this condition, one problem we're dealing with now is a weakened immune system. As a result, she's been on antibiotics frequently over the past few months. While antibiotics attack and kill infections and unwanted bacteria, they also disrupt and kill the normal balance of beneficial bacteria in the gut -- resulting in belly discomfort, gurgling, and diarrhea (or constipation in some dogs). In the past, I've usually just given my dogs a little dollop of plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt during those rare times when they'd been prescribed antibiotics. Unfortunately, my little aging terrier has developed a strong dislike for yogurt, so our veterinarian had sold us some Fortiflora along with her antibiotic. Fortiflora is one of a number of different probiotics which contain good bacteria that can help boost the levels of beneficial bacteria in the gut. We'd been using it for 4-5 months during her stretches on antibiotics. After reading some of the positive reviews on Probios, I decided to give it a try. For starters, it has more types of beneficial bacteria included in its formulation. In addition to the same E.faecium type that Fortiflora has, it also contains three different types of Lactobacilli. I'm glad that I made the switch for a couple of reasons. It's a less expensive option than Purina's Fortiflora. Also, she seems to be doing much better on it. Besides an improved appetite, her energy level and enthusiasm has increased markedly. And, as any of us who love our pooches know, that's an even better reason than the cost savings! While I used to only use probiotics during antibiotic treatments, I've now started giving her Probios daily as preventive care. The only thing that I did like better about the Fortiflora over the Probios is its palatability. She seemed to like the taste of the brown Fortiflora granules so I usually just sprinkled her dose on top of her food. The Probios probiotic is a white powder and doesn't seem to have that same appealing taste to her. But, it doesn't appear that it tastes bad to her either. I just end up mixing it up well into her food (a mix of kibble, chicken/fish, and veggies). Ingredients: Dried Enterococcus Faecium Fermentation Product, Dried Lactobacillus Acidophilus Fermentation Product, Dried Lactobacillus Casei Fermentation Product, and Dried Lactobacillus Plantarum Fermentation Product.

After a week on this Probios my dog is resting better, he no longer naw on his paws, no scratching and his biles are much better, I highly recommend this product.

Finally a probiotic that doesn't make my dog sick! I started giving this to him while he was taking antibiotics, but then I just kept using it daily. I sprinkle a quarter teaspoon on my 109-lb lab's food once a day, and it seems to keep him feeling great. He has had some digestive and skin problems, but I feel like this helps (along with switching his food to a higher quality kibble and adding fish oil on his food). His #2's have never seemed healthier. Highly recommend.

Important supplement for all horse owners! Good price and it lasts.

I use this daily on our dog and horses. Would recommend. Our dog loves it.

Probiotics are important for humans as well as horses. Seems to work for my elderly horse.

I chose this product for several a reasons: great reviews, made in the US, can use for multiple pets (not just my cat & dog, although buying for my cat) but the #1 reason, I could mix this powder in water to syringe feed to my cat. My cat HATES EVERY form of vet rx or vitamin known to earth. She hates it in ANY form. No pill pickets, no sprinkles over dry or wet food. No liquids or oils. I DREAD it all. Won’t do yogurt or pumpkin. Except, Miss Picky has FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY accepted this product. I mix her recommended dose into a little of wet food and then dump the rest of the wet food on top. She can’t smell it and gobbles it up. This product has helped her bowel movement become more regular and normal, no hard stool or diarrhea. It also helped her fur become soft and shiny again like a kitten (she’s 13 now). I also can sprinkle (bc my dog will eat anything) the recommend amour over her dry food. Female dogs tend to get more yeast infections than males bc her girl part is so close to her butt. That’s what my vet said, honest to G! Lol. Anyways, we had one several years ago and it was not fun. Meds are $$$ and seeing your baby sick is the worst! Thus, I give her a scoop about 2/week. Now, just like humans, what one product works wonder for one, may not do anything or worse to another. So keep that in mind. We, and animals, are not created equal. But if you’ve had a hard time giving your cat (or dog) health benefits, I say try it. Just start small. Keep an eye on your pet to look out for signs of sickness and always always consult your vet.

Have used this awesome Probios powder product for years for my horses and dogs. It literally saved my dogs life and my other dog who is pre disposed to sensitive stomach issues.. Will continue using it and always keep it on hand.. Im very aggressive with the dosing when they have an issue. So you can use it however but being more aggressive with it has better and faster results for your fur kids. I mix like 1/4 cup into 1 cup water, mix well. I give it alone a few times a day before feedings. They love the taste..

Great product and price

fait bien le travail.
