Probios for Dogs Soft Chews - Daily Probiotic Supplement for Gut Health, Digestion & Immune Support - Chicken Liver Flavour - 120 Chews

Choosing the Right Probiotic for Your Dog

When selecting a probiotic supplement for your dog, there are several factors to keep in mind to ensure effective support:

• Strain Diversity and Quality: Probios use Chr. Hansen probiotic strains, including Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis. These are shelf-stable, so they remain viable without refrigeration until the expiration date.
• CFU Count: With 20 million CFU per chew, this dosage is appropriate for medium and large breeds. Each chew provides a reliable dose of beneficial bacteria.
• Form and Palatability: Soft chews are often easier to administer than powders or pastes. The chicken liver flavour appeals to most dogs, making it simple to give as a treat or mixed with food.
• Manufacturing Standards: Probios is made in the USA at an SQF-certified facility and is a NASC Preferred Supplier, following strict quality guidelines for animal supplements.
• Prebiotic Support: The ADEPPT prebiotic blend helps nourish the beneficial bacteria, enhancing the effectiveness of the probiotics.

By considering these points, you can choose a probiotic that fits your dog's lifestyle and health needs.

What Are Probiotics for Dogs?

Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria that help maintain a healthy balance in your dog's digestive tract. Just like in humans, a dog's gut microbiome plays a crucial role in digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune function. Probios for Dogs Soft Chews deliver 20 million colony-forming units (CFU) per chew of shelf-stable probiotic strains, including Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis, combined with ADEPPT Technology—a proprietary prebiotic blend that supports the growth of beneficial bacteria. This daily probiotic supplement is formulated specifically for medium and large breed dogs, providing targeted support for digestive balance and overall wellness.

Key Benefits of Probiotics for Canine Health

A healthy gut is the cornerstone of your dog's wellbeing. Probios Soft Chews offer multiple benefits that contribute to your dog's vitality:

• Digestive Support: Probiotics help maintain a balanced gut microbiome, which can lead to more consistent stool quality and comfortable digestion. Many dog owners notice improvements in stool consistency with regular use.
• Immune Function: Since a large portion of the immune system resides in the gut, supporting gut health can help strengthen natural immune defences. This is especially beneficial during periods of stress such as travel, boarding, or seasonal changes.
• Coat and Skin Health: A well-balanced gut may also contribute to a shinier coat and healthier skin, as proper nutrient absorption supports overall condition.
• Resilience During Changes: Routine changes like antibiotic use, dietary transitions, or vet visits can disrupt gut flora. Probiotic supplementation helps maintain balance during these times.

These benefits are most noticeable with consistent daily use, as the probiotics work to maintain a favourable environment in the digestive tract.

How to Use Probios Probiotic Soft Chews

Administering Probios Soft Chews is straightforward. The recommended dosage is 2 to 3 chews per 25 kg of body weight daily. Simply give them as a treat or mix into your dog's food. The soft texture makes them easy to chew, even for dogs with sensitive teeth or gums.

During antibiotic use, give the probiotics at least 2 hours before or after the antibiotic dose to maintain effectiveness. Probios can be used daily for long-term support and is suitable for dogs of all ages, including puppies (over 12 weeks) and seniors. Regular use helps maintain consistent digestive and immune support.
