BEST PROBIOTIC ON THE MARKET
February 10, 2018
This product was an absolute life saver. Poor little Saint Bernard Ruby was dumped in my yard (they must have known I already have 2 Saints) with the most horrific explosive, projectile diarrhea I've ever seen. Off the to vet = no worms or diseases. I tried, boiled chicken, pasty white rice, boiled ground turkey, pumpkin, yogurt and all the usual suspects for dog diarrhea testing each one for a week, including the big name brand probiotic but without results. I stumbled across your product and the description caught my interest, not heated. Hmmm, I thought so maybe this was better?? YES, YES, YES. I followed the directions giving the appropriate dosage for her weight until the bottle was finished. 3/4 of the way through the bottle her stool was becoming a mashed potato consistency until finally by the end of the bottle - hard stool. I reordered anther container and will now keep her on your recommended maintenance dosage. Thank you, thank you. AND the bonus? MADE IN AMERICA. RubyAnna Rose and I thank you so very much.

Made both of my dogs sick.

I was giving my dogs a probiotic from another company with good results. This one was more economical, made in the USA, and had good reviews, so I decided to try it. Both of my dogs got sick while they were taking it. After discontinuing it's use both of them got better. Maybe I got a bad batch, but I'm not taking any chances and I'm not going to be using any more of it.

Our 7-year old rescue dog has had stomach issues for at least the 2.5 years that we have had him. We had to keep him on a strict diet, and any food scrap from the table or whatever he found on the ground would cause days of loose stools and keeping us up all night with a grumbly tummy and needing to go outside to eat grass. His breath was also awful. We dealt with this weekly until we found this product.
It was like someone turned on a switch, and our dog's digestive health is normal and thriving, and his breath smells like puppy breath, or no smell at all! I waited until he had been taking these for 2 months before writing this review just to make sure they would continue to work. They work amazingly!
Our dog no longer looks for or eats cat poo, or lunges at whatever he can eat that he finds on the sidewalk during walks. He is much more playful throughout the day. We have not heard his nearly daily stomach growls in 2 months, and for the first time in the 2.5 years he has been with us, he sleeps through the night, and so do we.
this has greatly improved our family's quality of life, not just our dog. No exaggeration!

I bought these for our rescued black lab cross puppy. When we adopted him, he was malnourished and suffering from mange, and his immune system definitely needed a boost. He tolerated one brand of puppy food well, but when we tried to gradually switch foods, his tummy became majorly upset. In fact, anything we gave him besides his puppy kibble - puppy treats, training treats, etc. - made him ill. It didn't help that being part lab, he is constantly hungry and will eat just about anything edible (or not!). Since starting him on these probiotics, his stomach is much, much better. He tolerates any supplemental food we give him without problems. He loves the taste and eats them readily. He recently got a hold of some coyote droppings while we were out on a walk (his noshing reaction is lightening fast), and he had a major setback with his tummy. After only a day (during which we were convinced he'd have to go the vet), he rebounded back to his bubbly mischievous self. Overall, I'm happy with these probiotics and feel like they've made a significant difference in my pup's well-being.

These chews have helped my dog so much. He has consistent tummy issues, partly because he eats EVERYTHING in the backyard. It's like he's part goat. Since giving him these chews, he has fewer issues and I have less to clean up! Everyone wins. Also, he loves them because they're a treat! Good stuff!

WARNING: Once you give your dog these they'll begin to have the same energy as they did as a puppy... And that's a lot to handle :)
All joking aside, you know what's interesting?
I really think the made in U.S. makes a huge difference. I'm always worried what's REALLY in products sourced from other countries. It's relieving to know these are made in right here in the states.
These flat out work... and fast. You'll notice the difference within a week.
P.S. Should have bought this for the neighbors dogs too. They get jealous sometimes.

Great product for my senior Frenchie!! My dog was having really bad diarrhea and nothing would control his issue. Took him to the vet and she treated him with shots, changed his food and I had to mix rice in his food to help with the diarrhea to no avail. This is a game changer! Love this product!! He must have a chew 2x daily. Morning and then at night and he loves them, he gets them as treats right after his walks.

I started using these at the recommendation of our holistic vet. After a brutal bout of bacterial meningitis, our dog's immune system (gut health) had been severely compromised by the hardcore antibiotics and steroids they had to give him for any chance of surviving the meningitis. Against some pretty tough odds our beloved pup survived and as part of his long term recovery plan, I put him on these. The chews are great, soft so it's easy to chew or break up to hide in food if your dog is super picky like mine. It seems to be keeping his system moving and on a regular schedule with normal BMs even when he eats something that use to cause loose stools, it doesn't affect him near as much. Would definitely recommend!

For months my older dog (14 yr. old Shih-Tzu) has been having stomach issues. We had not changed anything in her diet. We adopted her just over a year ago and she was always gassy (very loud and stinky). Within the last few months you could hear and feel the gas moving in her stomach, she would be unable to stay still because of the pain, she started eating grass, coughing or constantly burping (not sure which), her bowel movements were small and she has gotten sick enough to see the vet a couple of times. She would be better for about a week, and then we were right back where we started. I felt I had nothing to lose and decided to try a probiotic since I know humans that use a probiotic with good results. I was still skeptical this could work. After an okay from the vet, we gave it a go. She has gotten so much better! I noticed a difference within a few days and she kept getting better! Could this be a coincidence? Possibly, but the merry-go-round from hell has stopped for almost a month now. The only thing that changed was adding in the probiotic once a day. She still burps here and there, but I have not noticed any of the other issues since. No more noisy belly with pain, no more trying to eat grass, and much bigger bowel movements! I just can't give this company enough stars or thanks to explain how happy I am with the results and how much better she feels. Thank you Active Chews! I will order these again.

My poor dog (black and tan coonhound) always had diarrhea and loose stools no matter what I tried. She is a healthy dog but I have a suspicion she has some intolerance of the commercial kibble (even though she gets a good quality food). The first 2 weeks of taking this, she would go from loose stools to stools starting to harden, and then back to loose stools. We kept up with it though to see if time would help. It did! By week 4, her stools were a normal hardness and my poor girl isn't straining all of the time! I gave her the 2 a day until the first container was gone, which lasted about 6 weeks. She is now down to 1 a day and I am happy to say, she is still doing very well. I'm so glad I tried these probiotics, they are a lifesaver both for my dog and myself!
