Probiotics, Fibre & Digestive Supplements for Dogs

If your dog has dodgy digestion, it’s important to feed them a healthy, balanced diet. Digestive supplements – such as our Digestive Support range with probiotics and prebiotics – will also help to keep their gut health in tip top shape.

They do! Prebiotics work in harmony with probiotics to support healthy guts and good digestion.

Every pet is different, and your vet will be able to give you more specific advice. That said, it’s worth considering a long-term digestive supplement, such as YuMOVE Digestive Support Pre & Probiotic, if you notice your pet regularly has a sensitive tummy or excess wind. It’s also a good idea to keep a supply of short term digestive supplements, such as YuMOVE Digestive Support Rapid Paste, in the cupboard in case your cats and dogs has a sudden bout of loose stools.

YuMOVE Digestive Support Pre & Probiotic contains scientifically backed probiotics and prebiotics to maintain a healthy gut, helping pets with sensitive digestion have a good day every day. Our digestive supplements support a healthy gut environment, helping to reduce excess wind and keep stools firm. If you’re concerned about the side effects of digestive supplements, please talk to your vet.

Most cats and dogs can happily take a digestive supplement without seeing a vet. However, we do recommend that if you have any concerns, or if your pet has an on-going sensitive tummy, that you talk to your vet first.

Yes. The YuMOVE Digestive Support range is suitable to be given alongside your pet's regular food.

Different supplements can be given for different lengths of time. For example, YuMOVE Digestive Support Pre & Probiotic and YuMOVE Digestive Support Probiotic & Fibre are designed to offer ongoing support and can be given to your dog every day to support their digestive system.

Our YuMOVE Digestive Support Rapid Paste, however, provides short-term digestive support for dogs and cats with loose stools and can be used for up to six days. If your pet’s stools are not firmer after this time or if you have any concerns, we recommend seeking veterinary advice.

Regular grooming and maintaining good hygiene around your dog’s bottom can help reduce the likelihood of scooting. High-fibre foods and supplements with fibre for dogs can also help support natural gland expression. If your dog’s anal glands do become blocked, a professional groomer or a veterinary nurse will be able to empty them.

The best way to manage anal gland discomfort is to have your dog’s anal glands emptied by a professional dog groomer or veterinary nurse. Regular vet check-ups can help manage anal gland health alongside a diet rich in fibre. YuMOVE Digestive Support Probiotic & Fibre for Dogs is also specially designed to support the natural emptying of your dog’s anal glands and can help to reduce scooting and licking. YuMOVE’s vet-formulated Anal Gland Health Bites help reduce scooting and licking, keeping your dog feeling their best. They work by bulking and firming poos to support the natural emptying of anal glands, while supporting good gut health, digestion and immunity.

Made with pumpkin seed, apple pectin, and pre and probiotics, these delicious chicken-flavoured anal gland supplements for dogs are suitable from 12 weeks old.

There are a few different ways to give probiotics to dogs, depending on what suits your dog best. Some dogs get probiotics through specially formulated dog foods that contain added probiotics. Probiotics can also be given as supplements, which are designed to be an easy addition to your dog’s normal routine. These may come as powders you sprinkle over food, pastes, capsules or chews. The key is choosing an option your dog will happily take and giving it consistently as part of their everyday diet.

Every dog is different, but probiotics are designed to support gut health and digestion over time rather than work instantly. Some dogs may show changes fairly quickly, while for others it can take a few weeks of regular use. For ongoing digestive support, probiotics are often used as part of a long-term routine to help maintain a healthy gut environment and support day-to-day digestion. With the YuMOVE Digestive Support range, we’re so confident you’ll see a difference in 6 weeks, we’ll give you your money back if you don’t.
