VetriScience Gut Health for Dogs

VetriScience's Gut Health for Dogs chews use a single strain, Bacillus coagulans, at 1,000,000,000 CFU per chew (3 g) -- a narrower formula than the brand's Extra Strength capsules, which list seven strains. The manufacturer's own page doesn't state whether that billion-CFU count is guaranteed through expiration or just at manufacture. The chews include 100 mg of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) as a prebiotic. Storage is simple: a cool, dry place, with no refrigeration mentioned. The label carries NASC-guideline language, and the product was formerly sold as "Probiotic Everyday." It's sold in two sizes, a 120-count and a 45-count jar; 120 is the larger and more commonly stocked of the two.

Label claims include "non-dairy probiotic supplement," support for "digestive health, regularity," reduced "gas/bloating," and support for "immune health" -- all label claims rather than independent findings. The manufacturer's own product page also makes an explicit puppy claim: "Its simple, gentle formula makes it the perfect daily supplement for puppies who are acclimating to the world, adults who need basic digestive support, and senior dogs who need a boost of good bacteria in their gut." No Amazon listing was found for this item. Dosing scales by weight: 1 chew daily under 30 lbs, 2 chews for 30-60 lbs, and 3 chews over 60 lbs. This is a dog-only product, with a single-strain formula that's simpler than VetriScience's multi-strain capsule.
