Can Your Dog Benefit from Probiotics?

 Over the last few years, the topics of digestion, good bacteria, and probiotics have finally been getting the attention they deserve— not just for people, but for our beloved pets, too. Probiotics are beneficial micro-organisms (bacteria) that naturally occur in the gastrointestinal tract and are essential for the overall good health of your dog. The simple step of improving your furry friend’s gut health with a good probiotic can literally make all the difference. When Fido’s intestinal flora is out of whack, how he feels and acts can be out of whack, too.

The easiest way to get your canine companion back on track is to normalize the good flora with probiotics. Probiotics help your dog’s intestinal track to accept the food he or she eats and absorb the nutrients into the body. Here’s how your dog can benefit from probiotics:

• Antibiotics and steroids like cortisone are the most-prescribed drugs in traditional veterinary practices. While they are beneficial treatments, both of these can strip your dog’s digestive and immune system of the vital good bacteria. Processed dog foods can do the same harm. Probiotics help rebalance the amount of good to bad bacteria in your pet’s digestive system.

• Antibiotics kill bad bacteria, but they also kill good bacteria. So it’s vital to use probiotics to repopulate and restore the microflora in your canine’s gastrointestinal tract.

• When your dog’s intestinal flora is overun with pathogenic (harmful) bacteria, the result is runny, loose stool, or diarrhea. Very stinky stools, bad breath, and a foul body smell might signal that your dog has a bacterial imbalance. Probiotics will help crowd out the bad bacteria causing the bad smell.  Luckily, dogs treated with probiotics can see improvement in stools within a matter of days.

• Leaky gut (dysbiosis) is a condition where dogs can absorb partially digested amino acids and allergens into its bloodstream. This in turn can trigger a host of health problems. Probiotics can help your pets to absorb the vital nutrients they need from their food, and crowd out an overgrowth of bad bacteria.

If you think a good probiotic would be beneficial for your dog, consider. Bowser’s Best probiotic powder. It’s designed to restore normal intestinal flora, reduce build-up on the colon wall, and help regulate normal food absorption. It will help maintain a healthy intestinal tract and help fight disease and illness in your pet. Details about Bowser’s Best probiotic found here.
