Hi,
Well he did not give me much reasoning. Since Teddy has a bladder stone he said not to feed him because of the calcium in it? i dont beleive it. Really the only remedy i take when i am sick are probiotics vs antibiotics and i always get better. Also i take them everyday. Put in the good bacteria to kill off the bad
Probiotics are good for humans and i believe dogs too, and with Iams now promoting their new product (kibble) with probiotics i dont think it is bad. They are even promoting probiotics in childrens cereals at the grocery store. I will call me vet today and ask and get back to you. Although if anything it helps with digestion and to keep there intestines free from harmful bacterial.
Also when i went to the holistic store to purchase the RAW food, there was the probiotics and salmon oil on the fridge door, advising to pair all of these up for proper nutrition reasons.
