Best Probiotics For Dogs & Cats: Dr. Candy’s Holistic Selection Guide 2020

Hi there! Below, you will find my recommendations for probiotic supplements. Find the best match based on your pet’s species, age, health status or medical diagnosis. As a holistic veterinarian, I use my experiences with patients to recommend the best products for each situation. I look for products that are as natural as possible and ones that do not contain potentially dangerous, harmful or toxic ingredients. Additionally, for some health situations, I have found it best to use two products rotated. They are just beginning to explore this combination factor with human probiotics and I believe this approach can be very effective at supporting healing and restoring health in your pet.

The term “holistic” is a broad term that is often associated with multiple models of medicine or healing.  In general, Dr. Candy Akers follows the basic belief that medicine should address the underlying cause of disease and not just treat the symptoms.  This occurs by supporting your pet’s natural ability to heal and restoring the body balance.  Conventional medicine often follows a different path of just treating signs or symptoms of the particular disease appearance.

Disease manifests in our pets as a result of an internal unbalance.  These imbalances of normal health result from various insults or toxins encountered during modern life.   Support for your pets’ body can be in various modalities such as supplements, herbs, nutrition, homeopathy, detoxification, chiropractic adjustments and acupuncture.

Dr. Akers takes an integrated approach to veterinary medicine, combining both holistic medicine and traditionally trained modern Western medicine.  She uses conventional medical treatments to reduce or eliminate symptoms and pain during the healing process while supporting the body with more natural and less invasive alternative treatments.  This combination improves your pet’s quality of life, longevity and whole health.
