Has or does anyone use probiotics/enzymes for their dog? I recently started adding these (its one pill) to Mocha's wet food and I swear he is a different dog. His appetite is better, stools are more consistent, energy level has increased, less gas, and eye goop is far less. He only gets 2-3 oz of wet food in the morning, just enough to mix the 1/2 tab of probiotics. I can see the difference, but wanted to know from the YT experts your feelings. I feed Welleness, which he does well on. He had recently been on an antibiotic. I know that antibiotics generally strip the system of good and bad bacteria. Probiotics replace and regulate the good bacteria in the system (human & dog). Please share with me your thoughts, concerns, and opinions!
