VetriScience Extra Strength Gut Health Probiotic & Prebiotic Digestive Supplements for Dogs & Cats, Gas & Diarrhea & Immune Support, Easy-Open Capsules, 120 Count

Give it a try, it might be what you are looking for. I have waited almost a year before I gave a review just to make sure I believed in the product. So here is my backstory: I have a 3yo English bulldog who loves to live outside in Nebraska and has horrible skin issues. He naturally has a nasty yeasty smell. As a 1yo, we started him on depo shots because he chews his feet and gets hot spots. It helped some. By 2, it wasn't doing much, and he was getting face infections, so the vet put him on Apoquel. It was a game changer, his skin barely had a smell to it, and he seemed less itchy. Now, by this time, I was also bathing him twice a week with medicated shampoo, shaving him in the summer (to help air get to his skin better), and washing his face daily with medicated wipes. Things were going ok, but he had that rust colored fur on his face and feet, and had started chewing his feet again. The vet decided to give him depo shots as well, but they didn't seem to help much. We saw an ad for dog probiotics and I looked into ones that were for dogs with itchy skin. I chose this one, and I am extremely happy with it. The rust color is now totally gone from his face and feet, he has not chewed his feet since I put him on it. He did get a few small hot spots one time, but I hadn't given him a bath as soon as I should have. I only wash his face once in between bathing him and he has not gotten any face infections. He is still on the Apoquel, but I am not taking him off that after experiencing what he was like before. I can not attest to how every dog will react, but try it, and give it time, he didn't change overnight. It takes awhile for these probiotics to work. I have used several bottles now, I have noticed he gets a little diarrhea for a couple days about 2 weeks into a new bottle, or its a fluke that has happened 3 times now. I have definitely seen a difference in him and will continue using it. His skin is much happier and so is he.

Super! Not exactly cheap, but after getting a super skinny poorly rescue dog with some really unhealthy bowel movements, someone recommended pro-biotics for him. So, seeing as it is a medication and not cheap I did some serious and lengthy reading and research! I found this product seemed to be the only one with evidence that the bacteria reaches the gut, or in fact even contains active bacteria, most products only contain yeast and other chemicals to encourage gut health. Anyway, after extensive reading decided this was the product for my boy. He was struggling to put on weight, and like I said earlier, his bowels were far from healthy and there was the occasional incident of him eating his own poo (I know, revolting, I was horrified, but again, reading and research - it's actually a natural habit that's formed with dogs evolving as scavengers, and they will eat literally anything containing undigested protein and goodness, and doing this is symptomatic of deficiency of something in the diet or a problem where food is not being digested by the gut properly). He's been on two a day (as he's a big boy and that's the recommendation dose for his weight) for about a month now, and he has been putting weight on at a much healthier rate, and his bowel movements are so much healthier, I'm definitely going to continue him on them as the evidence out there suggests they are genuinely helpful for dogs, and they've definitely stabilised my boys bowels!

I've been giving half a capsule of these to my little 3.5 pound dog for about a year now. He loves them! I just sprinkle it over his food and he thinks it's a treat! With these and a different kind of food, he's been doing wonderful! I absolutely would recommend this brand of probiotics for your furry family members :) They also have great customer service. I phoned to ask about if they tested on animals (you'd be surprised how many companies like this do!!!!) and the representative was very kind and easy to talk to and assured me that they absolutely do not! All around just a great company and product.

My cat has been using it for a few months now and he hasn't had episodes of diahhrea since then.

Our rough collie who came at one year old from Argentina to the maddening sounds of Manhattan quickly developed colitis from the incredible stress which only Central Park gave him relief from. We tried every medication and food recommended by his vet to get his pudding like stool to harden up and though his sensitivities to the sounds of the city abated after three months, his loose stools did not, even though his appetite and energy were great. Reading what other reviewers had said about this supplement my though was just another probiotic that would not help. They said give it two weeks and my thought was it would be another futile purchase. However, after several days of usage I noticed his stool was forming and after a week was really hardening. Incredibly, after two weeks his bowels were not only formed but hard. I am a true believer in this supplement and believe me, we tried everything from continuous Tylan powder, rice, etc. to his present specialized venison diet and nothing worked until we started VetriScience. We open two capsules and spread on his morning meal once a day. I bought an extra bottle of their capsules to assure we never run out. If you have the problem, try this probiotic for two weeks and hope you have the same amazing results as we did.
