About our Supplements
At Big Dog, we understand that nutrition is the foundation of health, and that a healthy diet is the key to this. However, there are situations where dogs need more than just a healthy diet. Very active, working and competing dogs, as well as older pets or pets with specific health challenges may require a little extra help. For this reason, Big Dog has a range of supplements to help keep our extra-needs pets in tip top shape.

FAQs
Are your probiotics microencapsulated?
Absolutely! Microencapsulation plays an important role in protecting probiotic bacteria from the degradation that the digestive system was designed to do. It ensures they can stay viable through to the colon and, most importantly, get absorbed and benefit the pet’s health the way they are intended.
Can I add extra probiotics to your food and do I need to?
For the average, healthy dog there is no need to add extra probiotics to the diet as our recipes already contain probiotics at levels to help maintain healthy gut function. For dogs that need extra help with digestion, immune function, skin health, recovery from illness or have completed a course of antibiotics, adding extra probiotics is a great idea. Dogs transitioning from one diet to another can also benefit from daily probiotic supplementation to assist with this change.
Can my pet eat Big Dog while on antibiotics since your food contains probiotics?
There is no problem with feeding our food when your pet is on antibiotics. The antibiotics may damage the probiotics that are in our food, but the probiotics will not negatively impact the effect of the antibiotics which have been prescribed for your pet. A course of probiotics after the antibiotics are finished is highly recommended to get gut health back on track.
