Most probiotics made for pets are weak. For example, the product Depot3d is spamming us with contains only
400 million colony forming units (Enterococcus faecium and Lactobacillus acidophilus);
400 million total live yeast cells (Saccharomyces cerevisiae);
protease from Bacillus subtilis not less than 1,874
proteolytic casein units and amylase not less than 1,125 bacterial amylase units
A better probiotic choice might be the human supplement [link
http://store.thecatalog.com/2925.html]NOW Acidophilus 4 x 6 Powder[/link] which contains
Lactobacillus acidophilus 2 Billion
Bifidobacterium lactis (bifidum) 1.2 Billion
Bifidobacterium longum 200 Million
Lactobacillus paracaseil sub-sp 200 Million
Streptococcus thermophilus 200 Million
Lactobacillus bulgaricus 200 Million
And the NOW product is wheat, yeast, milk, soy, egg, and additive free.
Salmon oil is probably the best all around supplement you can give. I use [link
http://www.icelandpure.com/salmon_oil.htm]Iceland Pure[/link] and have also heard good things about [link
http://www.seapet.com/Oil.htm#omega3E]Seapet[/link]. The Seapet already has vitamin E in it, and E should be supplemented with high levels of omega 3s.
