My dog seems to be having digestive trouble after being on antibiotics (bad gas, occasional vomiting). Any thoughts?

Antibiotics, while sometimes necessary, can create havoc on your pet's gut, leaving behind terrible effects like gas, yeast, diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting; we call this the roller coaster. After your dog has completed his antibiotics, it is suggested that you provide 3-4 times the regular suggested amount of Probiotic Miracle for 3 weeks to help stabilize intestinal flora. After 3 weeks, continue at the normal dosage per your pet's weight. In doing this, you will reduce the risk of a pathogenic bacteria rebound and yeast overgrowth that may occur following antibiotics.

If your dog is eating too fast then throwing up the food just add water to it and it will slow them down enough to fix the problem. Our dog did this too, but the water fixed the problem.

Probiotic miracle works great for my diabetic fur baby. I give him less than the suggested amount or it gives him real soft poops. He has not had a UTI since being DX with diabetes and that was 2 years ago. It says on the website it is made in the USA. I like it because it doesn't have many inactive ingredients (fillers) in it. It doesn't upset his stomach either. I live in Florida so I do keep it in the refrigerator. Go to Nusentia.com for further answers. There you can contact them. I tried the Mercola probiotic and my diabetic baby did awful on it. He got a stomachache and started to eat grass to vomit. To many fillers in the Mercola probiotic. I also give probiotic miracle to my other fur baby. But beware you give to much and it will give them the poops because it does have inulin in it. I give my 25 pound dog (diabetic) a little less than an 1/8 of a tsp. 2x a day and my 7 pound dog 1/2 of an 1/8 of a tsp. in each bowl of food. I home cook for my guys, they get no dog food. I also supplement with Nupro, omega 3 oil, vitamin E, and brewers yeast with garlic. I put no poison on my guys either and no vaccines ever again for my guys. Over vaccinating is killing our fur babies. Good luck!!!

My dog was three years old when I found them, He is a large dog, so he can get the maximum treats and he has never had any side effects from them. However, a puppies digestive system my be different. I only buy the Yummie Chummies Gold which is 95 % salmon. The directions on the package do not say anything related to age. But maybe you could try giving him just one a day, and work your way up, and if he still has the same reaction it may be allergy related and I would then discontinue.

Honestly, it isn't normal. Grab a package of Bene-Bac here on amazon and that will help her. The ill-smelling bowel movements can be the result of a lack of healthy bacteria in her stomach. The Bene-Bac is like yogurt for cats - it will rectify the bacterial imbalance in her system.

We didn't really have a stool problem. Our dog had major gas issues. But I bet we saw a difference within 1 or 2 days. We used it every time we fed him which was twice a day.

if you trust your vet, what he/she says hopefully is accurate - what we got for Barni is like "wafers" and he's about ten pounds, 7 yrs old, was getting "limpy", seems to have perked him up in last few weeks - I've been breaking the wafers up in pieces and crushing into his food - don't know how much luck I would have if tried to do a "pill" the size of the schiff's glucos.

We've been feeding our dogs TOTW wetlands formula. Recently, our 2 year old chihuahua has developed dark patches of skin on her belly that are itchy and flaky. She also scratches a lot. However, she was on TOTW probably a month or 2 before this started. The dogs really like the food, and it seems to keep them healthy and their coats are very shiny and soft. I am waiting to see if it is just Fall allergies (we live in a very bad area for pollen and other irritants) before trying another food.

That doesn't sound normal. I would check with a vet to make sure it's not something else.

I can't say if this will clear a yeast infection in a dog, I'd suggest you take your pet to the vets and let him exam and treat. As for the probiotic, I found my pets are better digesting their food and no problems as far as stomach issues.

I had to stop the chicken meal one and switch back to the duck, turkey one. That will solve the gas problem. No one wants a stinky dog. The duck, turkey instinct cost a few dollars more, but I have to say the health benefits for your furkid will be worth it! Good luck!

No, not at all. Could be your dog got into something? Might want to check his teeth, Make sure no plaque or tartar buildup, I recommend Plaq clnz gel.

I , also, called the toll-free # w/ same results as other caller(s). My dogs have never had an issue w/ these specific treats & one of them has really bad digestive issues...I just do't give him any of the "red" coloured snacks, as these seem to cause a lot of gas/bloating= could be the red food coloring used? Great question!

Upon switching him to this food, we noticed that his flatulence stayed about the same but have added a probiotic to his daily diet regime and the flatulence has dramatically decreased to practically none at all. FYI, our Labrador is 11 so it was recommended that we add probiotics to his diet.

It is not. I have found when taking it after meals it frequently causes that fishy burp reaction. It's slightly disgusting. It might be that there are other things in my system (what I ate, drank, etc) that contributed to this. I also tend to take a capsule with other vitamins.

I have been giving Dasuquin to my Golden Retriever for a few years now with no change in his appetite. I have not heard of anybody having this problem so maybe there is something else going on.

As far as I know it's not classified as a drug. So I'm thinking it won't show up. And the gases and pain are probably b/c it's cleaning your intestines and stomach. It worked for me, but I also did lot of exercises and I started eating clean.
