Why Choose Probiotic for your Dog?
Most of the time, your digestive system and that of your dogs are taken for granted, and it is perhaps not realised how important it really is. A dog and human are no different in that they thrive on balance. We call this ‘equilibrium’, and things function much better if there is a sense of equilibrium in the body. The gut is the centre of the body and runs all the way through, and is responsible for extracting the nutrients out of the food eaten, and distributing these nutrients to the rest of the body in a form that can be used to nourish.
It is also more than that…..Just like humans, the majority of a dog’s immune system resides in his gut. The gut is the largest immune organ in the body and contains approximately 70% of all immune cells. So it is crucial to keep your dog’s digestive system running efficiently to make sure that he stays healthy, active, and lives a full and healthy life.
One way to potentially improve your dog’s digestive health is to offer him a daily probiotic supplement. There have been extensive studies on the benefits of probiotics in humans, however, veterinary research is just starting to really look into how supplementing for your dog with friendly bacteria can support health.
Key Benefits of Probiotics
It is now widely recognised by vets that probiotics are an effective first line of treatment for certain digestive disorders. I have first-hand experience, where a suspected tummy bug, causing loose stools and diarrhoea is successfully treated with a probiotic protocol, instead of antibiotics. What is even better, is that results can be seen very quickly.
It makes sense when this is the case, that a regular maintenance supplement of probiotics as part of a daily or regular supplement plan, can help to guard against potential pathogenic bacteria entering the intestine and causing issues.
