Reviews
I had never heard of such a thing as canine probiotic therefore I didn't really know what to expect.
I received a small box which contained 7 sachets.
The instructions for use advised to sprinkle onto normal food.
We did this and our dog did seem to enjoy it, certainly she was not deterred by it.
However with only one week's supply it is so difficult to say whether this product provided any true benefits.
When we first started using it she was unfortunately suffering with very bad wind. She is very sensitive to something - unfortunately we aren't sure what at this moment. Now the wind has settled down, much to everyone's pleasure, but it's difficult to say whether this probiotic actually helped with this or whether it was a coincidence.
I feel like I would really prefer to keep the probiotic up for a while to see if I could see definite advantages.
So having said that I would possibly buy this as a trial but I am not certain yet as to whether this would become a regular purchase in our household.
My Staffordshire bull terrior is about 12 years old now so she gets a but of an upset tummy from time to time with certain brands of food as I think they are a bit rich hence she has become fussy in her old age but when we added the powder to her usual food she ate it all up as quick as she could and she seems more spritely and her coat is shiny
Not what I expected.didn’t really notice a difference in my dog as she’s a husky.
Never even heard of PRO PLAN® VETERINARY DIETS CANINE FF Fortiflora before until now.
Not really sure what else to write…
Small box of sachets received, no instructions on how to use, how much to put on food and how often? Daily, weekly no idea. Sprinkled one sachet on top of dry and wet food, seems fine to eat, no different from usual food time. Haven’t noticed any difference yet.
