Are probiotics safe for my dog?

Probiotics are active microorganisms that your dog ingests, which add good bacteria to their gut. So it is 100% safe. Exceptionally, some mild cramps may occur during the first 2 days (the intestine adapts positively). This will resolve itself quickly.

What are the benefits of probiotics for my dog?

Probiotics are good bacteria that can support your dog's healthy gut flora. This way, we drive out bad bacteria, allowing good bacteria to predominate.

Probiotics are beneficial to dogs in different ways:

1. They help support healthy digestion by aiding nutrient absorption, boosting the immune system, and helping with skin allergies.

2. DogSuppy has chosen to combine the Probiotics with Prebiotics, Postbiotics and Paraprobiotics in the same mixture. This way they also provide 'food' for the good bacteria.

What if my dog ​​refuses to consume?

The supplements are formulated with flavourings that dogs love (based on meat). Your dog may need some time to get used to the supplement, so it is an option to divide the amount into two portions per day.


Additionally, you could try these tips!

1. Mix the chew with something your dog loves, like pâté, cheese spread, or another treat.

2. Crumble the chew into your dog’s food.

What makes DogSuppy's probiotics different from those of other brands?

DogSuppy works with 3 probiotic strains (Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Bacillus Subtilis, Enterococcus Faecium) and there is a high dose of probiotics (3 billion) per chewy.

Our chews also have a unique mix of Pre-, Post-, and Parabiotics:

- Prebiotics: They are nutrients that serve as food for the “good” bacteria in the large intestine. This keeps the probiotics active for longer. They consist of FOS (Fructooligosaccharides), MOS (Mannan-oligosaccharides), and GOS (Galactooligosaccharides).

- Postbiotics: They are short-chain fatty acids that make the intestinal environment more acidic. This promotes the growth of good bacteria and enhances the effect of the prebiotics.

- Parabiotics: They are dead bacteria that are stable and work synergistically with probiotics to increase effectiveness.

In addition, we keep the temperature below 38 degrees Celsius throughout the entire production to ensure more than 90% of the bacteria stay alive until they reach your dog's gut.

How many chews should I administer to my dog?

This formula is calculated based on the weight of your dog. 1 chewy should be given per 10 kg body weight.

This means:

  • Less than 10 kg: 1 chew per day
  • 10kg to under 20kg: 2 chews per day
  • 20kg to under 30kg: 3 chews per day
  • 30kg and above: 4 chews per day

How do I know if my dog ​​needs probiotics?

The most common signs that your dog may need probiotics often include scratching, bad breath, diarrhea, constipation, flatulence, or vomiting.

If any of these symptoms last longer than three days, it is often a sign that something is wrong with their digestive system.

Possible other causes are: sudden changes in food, separation anxiety, long-term use of antibiotics, stressful experiences... It is therefore important to pay attention to what they eat and any changes in their environment. If you think your dog may need probiotics.

Importance of probiotics when using antibiotics?

Uiteraard hebben antibiotica een aantal voordelen in specifieke situaties. Echter is het belangrijk om te beseffen dat er ook nadelen zijn verbonden aan het gebruik van antibiotica. Antibiotica doden onder andere de goede bacteriën die in de darm aanwezig zijn. Dat is de reden dat er na een kuur antibiotica vaak diarree optreedt. Daarnaast zorgt het veelvuldig overbodig gebruik van antibiotica voor restistentie, waardoor verschillende stammen antibiotica in de toekomst gewoon niet meer gaan werken (zowel voor mens als dier). Vandaar het belang om zowel voor, tijdens en na het gebruik van antibiotica zeker dit mengsel met onder andere probiotica te gaan gebruiken.

Should this be stored in the refrigerator?

No, best stored in a cool, dry and dark place. Prevent direct sunlight.

When should I give the chews to my dog?

It is best to give your dog the recommended dosage once per day, ideally in the morning. You can give the chews as treats, crumble them into their food, or give them alongside another favourite treat!
