NaturVet Digestive Enzymes with Prebiotics & Probiotics is a wonderful product that I regularly give to my four dogs (2 Dachshunds, a Chihuahua and a French Bulldog). I feel that it plays a very important role in their having a healthy digestive tract, and especially my longhaired Dachshund who was prone to stomach upset and loose stools. We tried gradually changing her to different dog food brands to no avail. The problem was only remedied when we started her on NaturVet Digestive Enzymes with Prebiotics & Probiotics. If you have a dog with a sensitive stomach and/or loose stools you definitely should give this a try. It works wonders!
I like that NaturVet Digestive Enzymes with Prebiotics & Probiotics:
1) Aids in digestion of food and absorption of nutrients.
2) Makes my dogs stool firm.
3) Decreases their gassiness (which is a big deal for our bulldog).
4) Strengthens their immune system, and slows the growth of disease-causing bacteria.
5) Contains prebiotics to feed the probiotics (good bacteria) supercharging them.
6) And I like knowing that it is made in the USA.
It can be sprinkled on a small amount of dry or wet food (to make sure all of it is eaten), stirred in, and is readily consumed by all four of my dogs. If you are feeding dry food, add a small amount of room temperature bottled spring water to it before sprinkling the product on (chlorinated tap water will kill the probiotics). I find that it sticks to moistened dry food and is better consumed that way. After they have eaten the small portion of food containing the NaturVet enzymes/probiotics you can give them the rest of their food.
HOW IT WORKS:
Your pet's digestive tract normally contains billions of bacteria and micro-organisms that assist with digestion. It requires a healthy balance of friendly and unfriendly bacteria. Poor diet, antibiotics, prolonged illness and aging can deplete the beneficial bacteria faster than they can be replenished. An incorrect balance of unhealthy bacteria over desirable bacteria is associated with poor digestion, inadequate Vitamin B12 absorption, systemic yeast infections and autoimmune diseases.
Your pet may also be deficient in digestive enzymes because the organs that make them produce less and less as your pet ages and also because most of the enzymes normally found in foods are lost when the foods are cooked and processed. Enzyme deficiencies cause gas, constipation, diarrhea, skin rashes, bloating, gastric upset and lowered immune function.
The prebiotics in NaturVet Digestive Enzymes with Prebiotics & Probiotics feed the probiotics (good bacteria) supercharging them so that they can restore the proper bacterial balance and fight the growth of disease-causing bacteria and yeast. And the enzymes help break down food so that it can be easily absorbed by the body ensuring your dog or cat is getting the nutrients they need.
PLEASE NOTE that if, when your pet begins taking probiotics, they initially experience gas or diarrhea these can actually be signs that the probiotics are working and that harmful bacteria and yeast are dying and being eliminated from your pet's body along with other wastes and toxins. This process usually lasts around three days, but can last longer.

It is made by the Garmon Corporation in its 38,000 square foot facility in Temecula, CA. They also make supplements and vitamins for joint and skin care, as well as grooming products for dogs, cats and horses.

We buy this cat food from Petsmart for like 35 dollars so like 40 after tax. It last like two months for both our cats we have. They are sooooo healthy, full of energy, their coat is so shiny and soft. They love the taste of it. It took a while for my girl cat we adopted to adjust to it, (clearly ate crappy food) shes had no hair on her belly and just awful, now she looks sooo healthy and has SOO MUCH HAIR, super fluffy!!!
The wet cat food is great too, actually smells like human food, not like vomit like most cheap cat food smells like. Give it to them once in a while for treats, they LOVE it and get super happy!
Purina Pro Plan Savory Adult Beef Entrée with Carrots Braised in
Thought that for more than $10 this would come with more than one can. Well I was wrong. $10 for ONE CAN of cat food. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. Then, when I went to return it, amazon said that since it was not their error shipping costs would be $6.95. I mean seriously?At this point I'm just returning it out of principle. I have been using amazon for years for 95% of the online purchases I make but if this is how they are going to start treating their customers, I'm out.
Friskies Flaked Cat Food
Awhile back I decided to set an example and fix 80 cats in my neighborhood. At first the feeding cleaning and care of all those cats was overwhelming and very expensive. A few years into the program I thought I might have to stop due to health and old age, but I was shopping on Amazon and saw cat food. WOW, There it was pages of Friskies canned catfood on sale and shipped using SUPER SAVER. I now have 60 cats and adore the great karma they put out. Thanks to Amazon I get wonderful prices and don't have to lug hundreds of pounds of food home each week.If you are taking care of ferals or have only one indoor kitty you MUST check out the huge range of flavors and friskie products in the grocery section of Amazon you will be delightfully surprised :-)

I have tried quite a few brands and types of kibble but none work as well in helping my Bichon to avoid skin problems, particularly itchiness, as this one does. It helps that she really enjoys the taste too.
Update: January 2012:
Wellness Simple Solution Rice and Salmon is the only kibble that I feed to my bichon. She loves it and I love the way it helps with her allergies plus the fact that she never has any digestion problems. I use to buy the smaller bags because I was concerned about freshness. Before finding this on Amazon, I had to special order it at a local pet specialty store and very often the packages had short time frame expiration dates.
After seeing how good the dates were on the smaller packages that I bought from Amazon, I switched to the larger 10 lb,8 oz. bag. I have been absolutely delighted by the freshness. The bag that I ordered in early January 2012, arrived nicely packaged and with an expiration date of July, 2012.
I'm happy that not only am I getting a wonderful food, made in the USA, but I can count on getting a fresh shipment too.
Weruva Best Feline Friend (BFF) OMG Variety Pack Canned Cat Food
My cat is a somewhat picky eater but he liked this food. I had initially received a sample size can from pet smart and let my cat try it out thinking he wouldn't like it but to my surprise he scarfed it down. So then I decided to see if Amazon carried this particular brand of food and they did so I bought this variety pack for him and for the most part he has enjoyed all the flavors some more than others but across the board it was a hit for him and I'm sure I'll be buying him more from Amazon because they hands down have a better price for this cans of food than Pet Smart.
WHISKAS TEMPTATIONS Variety pack, 12-Ounce
I usually order Temptations treats for my cats from Amazon. I ran out before the auto shipment was due and ordered this box of 4 pouches. The specifications said 12 oz, but I couldn't imagine 4 3oz packets for $18.05! I have no idea how the seller can charge that much for what I could have purchased at my local grocery for $1.73 per pouch. That is 3X the customary price.
I will not make this costly mistake again.

Petego United Pets Spoon'tino Pet Food Spoon, Aquamarine, 9.8
I bought this product because I don't use my house utencils for cat food and my other one wore out. This one is very sturdy and the handle is long but the food doesn't slide off it easily and therefore you would have to touch the cat food. For me, that's the main issue with this spoon; I don't want to touch the food and with my other cat food spoon, I could shake it and it would slide off onto the plate. Other then that it's very well made and good for those tall food cans.

I am very pleased with these treats and keep them stocked at all times because my cats demand them! They come and sit next to my chair, waiting for them daily, it's too funny. No other treats give this response from them, and they usually don't like other kinds.

Pure Bites Treats - Ocean Whitefish - 0.39 oz
I picked up a package when my cat had a dental cleaning with a tooth extraction, he had to have antibiotics for 7 days afterwards and I used these treats mixed into his food to cover up the taste/smell of the medicine in his food. He will eat *anything* with this freeze dried fish mixed in! He has IBD so I have to be careful about treats and buy only pure meat products. Also these are made in the USA or Canada not in China like many pet treats, though it doesn't say the source of the meat other than that it is USDA inspected.
