Guest guest Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Probiotics for pets? Wondering if you should give your canine companions supplements? Dogs can benefit from vitamins and minerals - usually found in their foods - as well as probiotics. Just as humans need active, " friendly " intestinal flora to help us digest our food and maintain a healthy bowel, so do dogs. To enhance your pet's diet with active cultures, treat them to kefir or plain yogurt on occasion, especially if they have had to take antibiotics. It can help restore and maintain a healthy digestive tract -- Diana Gonzalez Nothing wastes more energy than worrying - the longer a problem is carried, the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously - live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. -Unknown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 My dogs share my kefir every morning and so far so good I started last year when my little Yorkie needed 2 - $500 back knee operations. I started grinding up glucosamine,C, Cal/Mag, & flax seeds. She was 'well' in 2 weeks, sure cheaper than surgery! Malinda are great, check these out! http://health.Itsmyhormones/join Kokomo-FreeCycle/join Kokomo-freecycle-chat/join http://finance.kokomoforsale/join http://finance.kokobarter/join Jose and Diana Gonzalez [joseanddiana]Wednesday, March 23, 2005 12:22 PM Subject: Probiotics for pets?Probiotics for pets?Wondering if you should give your canine companions supplements?
