when mine have diarrhea i double it up - i just started it on 1/4 for my girl that was having diarrhea after i took her off due to metacam incident and it stopped immediately but i used 2 in am 2 in pm
if your dog will not lick it up like mine stopped doing then i mix in a tiny bit of pumpkin with it just enough to get the powder mixed in and she loves it - i get organic canned pumpkin from whole foods
the thing is too much pumpkin can cause diarrhea so i would start with small amounts but i prefer the probiotics |
These look like human medicine.... correct?? You say you used, during a diarrhea incident, 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening? What dosage was the probiotic? What I mean by that is, how many mg's (or whatever) were you giving each time? I ask because in case I can't find that exact one you mention at the health food store, I want to know which size I should be looking for. Did that make sense? I don't know much about probiotics (except having used it when the vet has prescribed it for our other dog before) so what exactly does "dds plus non dairy" mean? I know the non-dairy part but dds? I just want to know what I should be looking for at the store.
