PetLab Co. Probiotic Chews for Dogs
A probiotic chew most dogs accept, with clear labeling and a cost that climbs for large dogs.
The short version
- Owners of small dogs, where one chew a day makes a tub last a month
- Dogs that refuse powders but take treats
- Owners who want named strains and CFU counts on the label
- Your dog is on an elimination diet that rules out pork
- You have several large dogs and need a low cost option
- Your dog is pregnant, since the maker says safe use in pregnant animals is not proven
What owners like
- Most dogs eat the chews readily, even as a stand alone snack
- Clear labeling of strains and CFU counts
- Shelf stable chews are easy to give
Common complaints
- Gets expensive for large dogs or several dogs, since one tub can last only 10 days
- Results can take weeks to judge, and some owners wanted faster change
- A few dogs had mild stomach upset in the first days

What it does
A tub of 30 pork flavored soft chews for dogs that combine probiotics, prebiotics and a yeast postbiotic.
- Soft chew format given once a day by dog weight
- Probiotic, prebiotic and postbiotic ingredients in one chew
- Inactive ingredients include pork liver, sweet potato, chickpea and coconut oil
- Maker markets it for gut health support
- Reviewed as suitable for dogs over 12 weeks old
A good fit for owners who want a probiotic their dog will take like a treat, with named strains and a stated CFU count on the label. The main trade-off is cost: dogs over 25 lbs need two or three chews a day, so a tub runs out fast in big or multi dog homes.
