Dorwest Probiotic Plus - 100 Capsules

Every day Dorwest Probiotic Plus provides daily microbiome support for optimal gut health, utilising the benefits of a pre-, pro and postbiotic. Formulated by nutritionists and vets for maximum benefit, it effectively promotes normal gut function by supporting the good bacteria in your dog’s gastrointestinal tract. For dogs with sensitive tummies and/or loose stools, Probiotic Plus is ideal for all-round gut support. Each ingredient in this product has a clear purpose, for a clean formulation, free of fillers and additives.

There is also ever-expanding research showing the importance of a healthy gut microbiome, i.e. all the microorganisms (including bacteria) that live in the gastrointestinal tract, for general health.⁴-⁶ This includes skin and even behavioural effects. Probiotics support the good bacteria in your dog's digestive tract and reduce the bad. Dorwest Probiotic Plus includes the probiotic Calsporin®, a robust soil-based organism (SBO) which has been tested for safety and efficacy, and has been proven to improve stool consistency.²

We know how tricky it is to care for a dog prone to tummy troubles. Alongside a suitable high-quality diet and preventing them eating any potentially gurgle-inducing snacks, these supplements can be given daily to support their digestive health.

Small dog <10kg – 1 capsule per day
Medium 10-25kg – 2 capsules per day
Large >25kg - 3 capsules per day

This dual-use sprinkle capsule allows for flexible administration, enabling you to give Probiotic Plus directly or on-food to best suit both your and your dog's needs. This also means that Probiotic Plus is easy to use alongside other Dorwest products.
