Hopefully, the new year is shaping up to be a pawsome one for you and especially your furry fave! Sure, maybe your pup can't comprehend what years actually are... but that's because they're too busy being the coolest dog in the world, right? ;)
To keep Fido feeling zesty in 2022, the best place to start is none other than their tummy – and no, we don't just mean with yummy food and dog treats! Instead, we're here to share three ways you can support your doggy's digestive system and general gut health.
Let's get started!
1. Try a Probiotic Pill Wrap for Your Pup's Meds
Some canine companions need a little extra TLC when it comes to their well-being, which may require periodic or even permanent medications.
But, let's face it. Sometimes, giving dogs their medication is anything but easy, and they typically dread it as much as we do. So, if you're one of those dog parents that go to battle with your pup to swallow a bulky pill or tablet, we definitely relate!
That's why we recommend trying a yummy probiotic pill wrap for dogs to help their medication go down easier. Not only is it a tasty time-saver, but probiotics also maintain proper gut and immune balance that may be lost from taking certain meds. Just scoop, wrap it around the pill, and give it to your pup!
2. A "Splash" of Probiotics, Please!
While we're on the subject of probiotics for dogs, there are even more cool ways to introduce them to your doggy's diet.
Most dog parents assume that the only way to give dogs probiotics is through a soft chew or tablet. But, as you noticed from our first tip, that's not exactly true. So much so, that there's also a delicious liquid probiotic supplement for dogs that you can try as well!
All it takes is a few teaspoons to help your dog get the probiotic support they desire for GI health and gut flora. Plus, its bone broth base makes it so paw-lickin' good that Fido might not want to wait for it to reach their bowl! A liquid-based probiotic supplement might also be a helpful alternative for dogs that experience difficulty chewing.
3. Digestive... AND Dental Support?!
Speaking of teeth, what if your pup not only chews with ease, but also enjoys things like rawhide bones and dental sticks? If that sounds like your four-legged friend, we have something worth sinking their teeth into!
To simultaneously support your dog's gut and periodontal health, these tasty sticks are the way to go. These sticks are packed with the good stuff to provide tail-waggingly awesome support for digestion, immune function, and even their teeth and gums! Quite a combination, don't you think?
Don't get us wrong, soft chews are still an awesome option to support your pup's gut health. But, if you also want to give Fido a fun little project to chomp away at, these sticks are sure to keep them occupied, entertained, and most of all... happy!
That's all for now, but check in with us or share photos of your furry friend on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or Pinterest using #ZestyPaws.
