Product Info

PROTECT is veterinary formulated and ideal for every day use. It can be given to all dogs, even the ones dealing with immune or digestive challenges.

The SBOs (Soil-based probiotics) are species of bacteria from in soil.

These SBOs are spore-forming and can form a hard shell that protects them from high temperatures, stomach acid and some antibiotics.

There are even some antibiotics made from SBOs for this same reason.

And there’s good news for dogs who have an allergy to dairy. Unlike a lot of probiotics that come from dairy (like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium), SBOs in PROTECT are hypoallergenic.

Why does PROTECT have fewer bacteria content than other probiotics?

Soil-based probiotics are spore-forming with a hard coat that makes them more resilient and protects them from high heat, stomach acid and antibiotics. It also helps them populate in the colon where they’re supposed to be, rather than in the small intestine.

Other probiotic strains like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium are delicate and often don’t survive once they hit the stomach. The ones that do survive, don’t last long and are eliminated from the gut within 24 hours.

Does Protect reduce toxins in my dog?

Yes. Protect’s hand-picked formulation includes chlorella, bentonite clay and humic and fulvic acids. These ingredients do a good job of binding to heavy metals and toxins to help them flush out of the body.

Humic and fulvic acids support detoxification in the body and help to neutralize toxins.
Bentonite clay absorbs 8x higher than other clay.

Should I give my dog PROTECT if he has Leaky Gut?

If you think your dog has leaky gut, we recommend Gut Guard.

Gut Guard is veterinary-formulated and rich in soothing herbs and foods that have an affinity for the gut lining and help soothe and repair leaky guts.

The robust probiotics in Gut Guard are much more likely to survive the harsh gut environment better than traditional probiotics (which helps them stand up to stomach acid and high heat). Because of its hardy capabilities, it can do its job to help control inflammation and the natural prebiotics can help restore healthy bacteria colonies.

Will PROTECT help my dog’s diarrhea?

Research has shown that probiotics can cut diarrhea recovery time in half. To better address any other underlying gut issues, it’s recommended to continue on the probiotics for a few weeks at the least.

Other probiotics can be fragile, and often don’t make it past the stomach acid to benefit your dog.
