The best probiotics is either yogurt or lactobacillus acidophilus tablet -same as what people take -can be given to a dog that is suffering from diarrhea, which depletes the dog’s body of the friendly bacteria which digests food. Friendly bacteria in probiotics is the beneficial part of the dog’s flora and fauna or intestinal environment that helps the dog digest and remove waste.
The best probiotics are the organics of course with no chemical additives that are harmful. The probiotic advantage is that it will balance the dog’s gut and digestive system and bring it back to normal while replenishing the friendly bacteria which is so important to a healthy dog.

Pet probiotics works for cats too as cats get feline vomiting and also have food allergies when throwing up their food. Today’s pet foods contain Genetically Modified Foods or GMO’s including corn, soy and some other ingredients in the commercial pet food industry -anything goes into pet foods. Since there are no regulations against harmful ingredients, you will stress out your pet feeding these foods to them. Especially the dog liver which functions as the garbage cleaner as it cleanses the blood of harmful chemicals. When the dog consistently digests bad dog food the dog’s liver is overtaxed and overburdened which in the lifetime of a dog is difficult to repair.
