Building a Healthy Bowl: The Power of Probiotics

At Great Dogs, we’ve always been passionate about helping you build the best possible bowl for your pup. From choosing the right food to finding the perfect chew, we’re here to make sure your dog feels great from the inside out.

When it comes to overall health, we believe it all starts in the gut. A balanced, healthy gut can make a huge difference — improving digestion, boosting immunity, helping with allergies, and even supporting mood and energy levels. One of the best ways to support that balance is with probiotics and prebiotics.

That’s why we’re so excited to share that we’ve expanded our supplement selection with two amazing, holistic brands that focus on gut health and overall wellness: Green Juju and Adored Beast Apothecary.

🌿 Green Juju: Fermented Power for Gut Health

We’ve carried Green Juju for a while now — their blends are some of our favorites for adding whole-food nutrition to any diet. But their new line of probiotics takes things to the next level! Each formula is uniquely crafted to support gut balance and nutrient absorption in different ways.

  • Soil – A wild-fermented, organic kombucha probiotic that helps support weak digestion and rebalance the gut after antibiotics. It’s also wonderful for dogs with yeast or sensitive stomachs.

  • Leaf – A long-fermented kombucha-based probiotic (and non-dairy!) that helps soothe upset stomachs, balance the gut, and even support weight management.

  • Farm – A shelf-stable, raw fermented goat’s milk probiotic that promotes digestion, joint health, and nutrient absorption — perfect for pups who don’t tolerate dairy well.

If you haven’t added Green Juju to your dog’s diet yet, now’s the perfect time! Their products are an easy way to “build a better bowl” — whether you feed kibble, raw, gently cooked, or home-cooked meals.

🐾 Adored Beast Apothecary: Holistic Support from the Inside Out

We’re also thrilled to introduce Adored Beast Apothecary to the Great Dogs shelves! This organic, holistic, and homeopathic line was created by a clinical herbalist and homeopath who has worked with animals for decades — and their formulas truly show that expertise.

Here are a couple of our favorite new arrivals:

  • Gut Soothe – A gentle, effective probiotic that helps with digestive upset, food transitioning, and even supports respiratory health. It’s also great for everyday use, especially for kibble-fed dogs.

  • The Roots (Soil & Sea) – This powerful blend supports healthy digestion while helping to bind toxins and heavy metals — a fantastic choice for dogs who love snacking on grass or dirt!

Why Gut Health Matters

We often think about what’s in our dog’s food — protein, fat, and calories — but the way they absorb those nutrients is just as important. A healthy gut helps your dog get the most out of every meal, supports their immune system, and keeps them feeling balanced and happy.

Adding probiotics is one of the easiest, most effective ways to support that foundation. Whether your pup struggles with sensitivities, allergies, or just needs a little digestive boost, there’s a probiotic that can make a big difference.

If you’re curious which supplement would be best for your dog, stop by the store! We’re always happy to help you choose the right option and share how to incorporate it into your dog’s daily routine.

Here’s to happy bellies and wagging tails! 🐶💚
