Dog Health
- Signs of gastrointestinal distress or an imbalance in the microbiome is quite common in dogs and may include: flatulence, loose stools, and diarrhoea
 - 70% of the body's immune cells are located in the gut, therefore, a healthy digestive system is crucial for overall health and well-being
 - A combination of Prebiotics, Probiotics and Postbiotics can assist in rebalancing the gut microbiome and prevent harmful bacteria becoming dominate over beneficial bacteria
 
Gut Microbiome
- Dogs harbour a vast number of microorganisms in their digestive tract such as bacteria, viruses, and yeasts, which collectively form the gut microbiome
 - The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal digestion and absorption of nutrients to support a healthy immune system
 - A healthy microbiome has a large population of beneficial bacteria, a diverse range of bacterial species, and the correct balance of beneficial vs bad bacteria
 
Beneficial Bacteria Versus Bad Bacteria
- The microbiome comprises of both beneficial and harmful bacteria
 - Beneficial bacteria assist food digestion and regulate levels of harmful bacteria
 - Harmful bacteria can have negative effects on your dog’s health if they escape the gut and enter the bloodstream, or if they overpower beneficial bacteria

How Soon Will Results Be Noticeable?
- While the effects of a probiotic supplement can vary, it may take a few days to two months for your pet to experience the benefits
 - Probiotics work by increasing the population of beneficial bacteria in the gut and reducing harmful bacteria - this process takes time
 - It's important to be patient and continue giving your dog the recommended daily dose for at least 2 months
 - If symptoms persist, seek advice from your veterinarian

Note
- Probiotic supplements take precedence over yoghurt as a natural food source of probiotics because dairy products have a high lactose content that may cause intestinal distress
 - *CFU refers to ‘Colony Forming Units’ and represents the number of living/viable microorganisms in one serving of probiotic supplement. It is an indicator of probiotic quality to ensure your dog receives a high enough number of live bacteria per serve to improve the balance of good bacteria in the gut.
 
Side Effects
- The purpose of probiotics for dogs is to restore balance in their gut and prevent bad bacteria from overpowering beneficial bacteria
 - This balancing process can take time, and your dog may experience temporary digestive adjustments such as flatulence, loose stools, or diarrhoea
 - These adjustments are normal as the gut transitions to a healthier microbiome and indicate that the probiotics are working
 - If digestive symptoms persist, stop giving probiotics for 2 days to allow the gut to settle, then restart with half the recommended daily dose for 3 days before increasing to the standard dose
 - Consult your vet if symptoms persist
