Diarrhea Symptoms

Already know which products your dog needs?

Headline

When your dog’s gut microbiome is out of balance common digestive symptoms like diarrhea or loose stool occur.

Your dog’s poop should be somewhat firm in consistency and have a distinct shape. Diarrhea can refer to a range of consistencies, from moist but distinct piles of poop to shapeless blobs to watery puddles. Frequent diarrhea is often a sign of a digestive issue caused by a problem with your dog’s gut microbiome not functioning properly.

So what is the gut microbiome? It’s the community of bacteria, fungi, and other microbes that live in your dog’s digestive tract and is essential for health. 

Missing Good Bacteria

Too Much Harmful Bacteria

Not Enough Diversity

A gut microbiome is imbalanced when it’s missing good bacteria, has too much harmful bacteria, or not enough diversity in the gut. Factors like disease, age, diet, and medications—especially antibiotics—can cause this kind of imbalance in your dog’s gut.

Gut microbiome testing can give you a detailed understanding about what’s going on in your dog’s gut, revealing any imbalances that can cause diarrhea.

You send us a small poop sample from your dog, and we’ll do the rest. Using DNA sequencing, our scientists analyze the bacteria in your dog’s poop and compare it to our healthy dog reference set to determine if an imbalance is present. We then provide an interactive online report of your dog’s gut microbiome with personalized diet and supplement recommendations to help relieve symptoms and improve their digestive and overall health.

The supplement introduces an entire community of beneficial dog-specific bacteria to bring balance to the gut and relieve symptoms. Gut Restore is a fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) in an oral capsule. FMT is shown to improve symptoms in dogs with chronic digestive issues. Replenishing those missing bacterial populations can often resolve diarrhea quickly by restoring a healthy balance to your dog’s microbiome. If possible, we still recommend testing your dog’s gut microbiome.

With active ingredients Saccharomyces boulardii and Fructooligosaccharides (FOS), the supplement improves stool consistency and supports your dog’s digestive health. Since the microbiome is an ever-changing ecosystem of bacteria that is impacted by factors including diet and medications, we suggest re-testing the microbiome annually or if symptoms arise. A well-balanced gut will help your dog live a healthier, happier life.
