Protexin has launched what is billed as the first therapeutic veterinary GI diet to contain an added probiotic: Pro-Balance, with Enterococcus faecium.
According to the company, dogs presenting the common clinical signs of upset, such as vomiting, diarrhoea, lack of appetite and weight loss are one of the most common reasons for a dog to be brought to the vets. The beneficial effect of probiotics on GI disorders by providing an influx of beneficial bacteria to the unbalanced gut has been extensively documented. As has the fact that, in acute cases, dogs respond well to dietary management following a short period of ‘gut rest', as an essential aid to a recovery programme recommended by the vet.
