At Big Dog, we understand that nutrition is the foundation of health, and that a healthy diet is the key to this. However, there are situations where dogs need more than just a healthy diet. Very active, working and competing dogs, as well as older pets or pets with specific health challenges may require a little extra help. For this reason, Big Dog has a range of supplements to help keep our extra-needs pets in tip top shape.

FAQs
Can I add extra probiotics to your food and do I need to?
For the average, healthy dog there is no need to add extra probiotics to the diet as our recipes already contain probiotic foods/ingredients. However many pet parents include a probiotic either daily or every few days as a means to give their gastrointestinal and immune systems a healthy boost. We encourage pet parents to include a multi strain probiotic supplement to encourage a diverse, healthy microbiome for their pet.
For dogs that need extra support with digestion, immune function, skin health, recovery from illness or have completed a course of antibiotics, adding a daily probiotic supplement is a great idea. Dogs transitioning from one diet to another can also benefit from daily probiotic supplementation to assist with this change.

Can my pet eat Big Dog while on antibiotics since your food contains probiotics?
There is no problem with feeding our food when your pet is on antibiotics. The antibiotics may damage the probiotic ingredients that are in our food, but the probiotics will not negatively impact the effect of the antibiotics which have been prescribed for your pet. A course of probiotics after the antibiotics are finished is highly recommended to get gut health back on track.

Are your probiotics microencapsulated?
Absolutely! Microencapsulation plays an important role in protecting probiotic bacteria from the degradation that the digestive system was designed to do. It ensures they can stay viable through to the colon and, most importantly, get absorbed and benefit the pet’s health the way they are intended.
What dose of probiotics does my pet need?
Our guide for your pet’s daily dose of our Big Dog Probiotics is:
Cats: ½ teaspoon
Small dogs (up to approx. 10kg): ½ teaspoon
