What is the Best Probiotic for Dogs?

June 4, 2017 By MSAdmin

The best probiotic for dogs is the one that has the right probiotic strains for the condition or conditions that you are trying to treat in your dog.

Probiotics are helpful in treating many conditions including diarrhea in dogs, inflammation, and as an immune stimulant.  Pet food experts caution against a probiotic that has too many strains of good flora because after a certain number, they will start to work against each other.  The other problem with too many strains is that since probiotics are living organisms, you want to make sure that the beneficial flora are still active at the end of the shelf life of the product you are purchasing.  Too many strains and you will end up having many that are no longer living and can’t do their job.

Identify the problem you want to solve first, and then select a probiotic for your dog that addresses those concerns.  Each strain has a job that it is perfectly suited to do.  The product you are buying should state clearly what strains are included and what purpose they are intended to address.

For example, DiarRice has 5 probiotics chosen for their ability to address the specific symptoms and conditions that present when a dog has diarrhea.  Not to be too indelicate, but smell, gas, consistency are all part of the equation when your dog gets diarrhea.  First, the probiotic needs to solve the problem which is an imbalance in the intestines.  But the other symptoms can be uncomfortable for your dog and you too.  So we have incorporated the right strains of probiotics into DiarRice that address all the conditions surrounding dog diarrhea.

You’ll want to avoid a one-size-fits-all probiotic if you are trying to solve a specific problem for these reasons.  DiarRice was developed by a veterinarian to solve one of the most popular reasons for visiting his vet practice: diarrhea in dogs.

What to Give a Dog for Diarrhea?

June 2, 2017 By MSAdmin

From time to time, dogs can and will get diarrhea.  Whether it is because of a change in diet, or stress, or digging up some smelly thing in the backyard and eating it, your dog’s digestive system will react to the “digestive intruders” in the most unpleasant way.  Being prepared for these inevitable episodes will help your dog recover faster than waiting for a vet appointment or waiting until you can get to a store to buy something that might help.

First of all, you should know that all diarrhea episodes are not minor or usual.  Some are actually signs of a more serious medical condition.  If after trying a few home remedies for a day or two you see no progress at all, then it is time to get an expert medical opinion from your vet.  Your dog may have contracted a parasite or more dire condition that only a vet can diagnose and treat.

That being said, most diarrhea in normally healthy dogs can be addressed easily at home.  Many people, vets included, suggest a bland diet of white rice and chicken.  This will not work for most cases of diarrhea because neither of these foodstuffs address the underlying cause of diarrhea in dogs which is an imbalance in their digestive system.  Fiber from rice won’t fix the toxins or the smell or the gas associated with diarrhea episodes although it will help with the texture of their bowel movement.   The problem is balance.  Unless you fix the problem, things like rice and pectin won’t do anything but put a temporary bandage on the situation.

Dr. Jeff developed DiarRice for most cases of dog diarrhea.  This is something every dog parent should have in their medicine cabinet or pantry for the inevitable next time their dog gets diarrhea.  It’s going to happen at some point this year.  Why not be prepared?  Unlike other over the counter medications for diarrhea in dogs, DiarRice contains the right probiotics that address the underlying cause:  intestinal imbalance by replacing bad bacteria with good bacteria.  DiarRice promotes gut health, aids in digestion, suppresses the growth of gas producing bacteria, aids in fighting off diseases, helps food absorption, helps eliminate toxins and resets the pH balance.

It is made just for dogs and their unique needs.  Not cats and not people.  Using things like Pepto Bismol and Imodium to treat dog diarrhea come with their own risks.  Why risk your dog’s health and suffer another day of discomfort?  Stock your pantry with the only dog diarrhea treatment that is formulated by a vet with a taste dog’s love.  Get DiarRice for your dog and your peace of mind.

Can You Give a Dog Pepto Bismol?

June 1, 2017 By MSAdmin

The short answer to the question ‘can you give a dog Pepto Bismol’ is that it is not recommended to give medicine and drugs that are formulated for humans to your canine companions.  Do people do it?  Yes, unfortunately, all the time.

When considering giving a human over the counter medication to dogs, you need to weigh the risks with the convenience.  First of all, you should never give a dog Pepto Bismol without consulting your veterinarian first.  There is a danger of certain drug interactions and only your vet will know what other medications your dog is taking will react negatively with Pepto Bismol.

If your dog has certain allergies or has a blood disorder, then Pepto Bismol is not advised.  Again, your veterinarian will know if these conditions are present in your dog.  The medication also has as an active ingredient aspirin.  Giving aspirin to dogs in high doses or too frequently can result in ulcers in your pet.

Other considerations are the discoloration of stools after doses of Pepto Bismol which may mask a more serious underlying condition other than the diarrhea you are trying to control.

If your vet recommends Pepto Bismol, he or she will probably have strict dosage guidelines for you to follow.  More is not always better and may cause more problems than your dog deserves.

There are other alternatives that are safe to give your dog whenever diarrhea occurs.  We recommend DiarRice as it is formulated by a vet for dogs and is very effective in controlling diarrhea symptoms safely and effectively.
