Key Benefits of FortiFlora Probiotics for Dogs

Supports Digestive Health
FortiFlora helps maintain regular bowel movements and is especially beneficial for dogs with occasional diarrhoea or loose stools. The live microorganisms in each tablet support the natural balance of intestinal flora, reducing the frequency of digestive upsets.

Promotes Immune Function
A healthy gut is closely linked to a strong immune system. By supporting the gut microbiome, FortiFlora may help bolster your dog's natural defences. This is particularly important for puppies, senior dogs, or those recovering from illness.

Easy-to-Give Chewable Format
Unlike messy powders or capsules, FortiFlora comes as a palatable chewable tablet. Most dogs accept it readily, making daily administration straightforward. Microencapsulation technology protects the probiotics from heat and moisture, ensuring stability and potency.

Trusted by Vets
FortiFlora is one of the most widely recommended probiotic supplements for dogs. Developed by Purina's nutritionists and vets, it undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure safety and efficacy.

What Are Probiotics for Dogs?

Probiotics are live microorganisms that help maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria in dogs. A dog's digestive tract hosts a complex community of bacteria vital for nutrient absorption, immune function, and overall wellbeing. When this balance is disrupted—by stress, dietary changes, or antibiotics—supplementing with targeted probiotics may support normal digestive function.

Purina Pro Plan FortiFlora is a veterinary-recommended probiotic supplement designed specifically for dogs. Each chewable tablet contains a proprietary blend of beneficial bacteria, including Enterococcus faecium, which survives the acidic stomach environment and colonises the intestines. FortiFlora promotes digestive and immune health in puppies and adult dogs alike.

How to Choose the Right Probiotic for Your Dog

When selecting a probiotic for your canine companion, consider the following factors:

• Strain Diversity: Look for a product with scientifically studied strains. FortiFlora uses Enterococcus faecium SF68, extensively researched for its benefits in dogs.
• CFU Count: Colony-forming units indicate viable bacteria numbers. FortiFlora provides an effective level of live probiotics per dose to support digestive health.
• Form and Palatability: Chewable tablets are often easier to administer than powders or capsules, especially for picky dogs. FortiFlora's beef-flavoured tablets are highly palatable.
• Veterinary Recommendation: Products backed by vet research and recommended by professionals offer added confidence. FortiFlora is routinely suggested by vets for digestive wellness.
• Shelf Stability: Many probiotics require refrigeration, but FortiFlora's microencapsulation allows convenient storage at room temperature, ideal for travel.
