Much like in humans, a dog's gut is home to trillions of microorganisms that play a vital role in digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune function.

This 60 ml liquid supplement combines a proprietary blend of seven probiotic strains—including Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus casei, Bifidobacterium breve, and Enterococcus faecium—with a digestive enzyme blend containing bromelain, papain, and peptidase. The addition of prebiotics helps feed these beneficial bacteria, promoting a thriving gut environment.
