I have two dogs, one who has started suffering from seasonal allergies. I originally bought this to try to help alleviate those but it didn't work for that specifically. So, I just started putting it on both of my dogs food for good probiotic measures and to just use it since I know it's not bad for them. The allergy dog has always had very healthy hearty looking poops. He is a small dog but passes these giant perfect turds. My other dog - despite being the same size and general breed - has never had big hearty poops. Always smaller and kinda sad looking. Well, this is the magic poop powder because her poops are epic now. Very solid looking but not dry, big but easy for her to pass. Its seriously amazing and not what I expected at all. So yeah, 5 stars for healthy poops.

container look old,expiry date less than a year

My dog has the worst breath suddenly in Dec 2022. The vet charged a big fee for blood tests etc. and had no conclusion. I suspected some gut problem and tried buying other probiotics, breath freshener and brushing daily. It barely helped. Everything stank around her until I used this and after less than a week, it is almost gone. A godsend. Thank you for a great product.

I mix this probiotics for my cats' daily meal. They do not mind eating after the food and the probiotics have been mixed together. No side effects so far.

I think it works for my dogs and the price is reasonable. We probably continues to buy on regular basis.

I don't write a lot of reviews, but thought this might help other dog parents. I have been dealing with my Shih Tzu's allergies for over 2 years. She is 12 years old now. At first, we thought it must be food allergies, so we went through many food changes and nothing helped. It turned out to be environmental (grass, pollen, who knows what else!)The vet recommended Cytopoint injections along with a shampoo for fungus/yeast. After the first injection, I thought we found a miracle! It worked so well, itching and licking stopped, there are no side effects as it is a biologic. Unfortunately, after about 6 months of monthly injections, the effectiveness wore off. I was lucky if the shot lasted 2 weeks before the itching returned. The entire time on Cytopoint, she still had seborrheic and inflamed skin - the shampoo was not helping. She was on this combination for over 2 years (trying different shampoos along the way) and I was bathing her at least two time a week, but she was still greasy and within a day she smelled bad.Fast forward to 2 months ago. She got small sore on her neck, I thought it was from scratching. It was healing and I took her for a Crytopoint injection. About 2 weeks later, I saw this huge sore on her neck above the one that had healed, dripping with blood. I freaked out and called the vet and took her right in. It was a nasty hot spot, which she has never had! Since the Cytopoint was clearly no longer effective, the vet recommended Apoquel. I had her on this exactly 14 days and it did stop the itching but she had VERY bad side effects. Panting, increased thirst, increased hunger, acted strange, couldn't relax and the hot spot would not heal, it kept breaking open and bleeding! I did research and learned that Apoquel suppresses the immune system. I stopped her immediately from this drug. Within 2 days off the Apoquel, the side effects were gone and the hot spot scabbed over and within a week it was completely gone. I asked the vet if I could give her Claritin (just the regular not the D) and she said yes, 1/2 pill once a day (she weighs 16 lbs).At my wits end, I was researching probiotics for dog allergies and came upon this product. I was so desperate at that point, I would have tried anything safe to help my baby feel better. I started her on one scoop per day (I give her a little over a full scoop now). It is such a small scoop, I just knew it wouldn't work. I am SO happy I was wrong!! Within a week, I noticed her hair was not as greasy and she didn't have that awful smell. The skin on her stomach is now beginning to turn pink again (after just 3 weeks on this), instead of red and inflamed. The constant scratching and licking has subsided. The hair on her back is starting to grow again (it had gotten pretty thin and not much growth). AND, I'm bathing her just once a week. I also found this shampoo (also purchased on Amazon) worked WAY better than the one the vet gave me and it's cheaper: BEXLEY LABS Curaseb Benzoyl Peroxide Dog Shampoo.I'm hopeful that keeping her on this probiotic along with Claritin and the shampoo that I will continue to see improvements. I can tell she is feeling better, she is playful again rather than distracted by itching and licking. The probiotic might not work for all dogs, but it has for mine - It is certainly worth trying! I only wish I knew about this 2 years ago! By the way, there must be no flavor to this powder, I mix it with her dry + wet food combo and she eats it up (she is an extremely picky eater, but she doesn't seem to notice this).

Probiotics changed my dog's life. Last year, she was having all sorts of digestive issues. We visited the vet several times over a period of 3 months, and the vet was neither able to come up with a cause, or have a plan of action to resolve the issues. So we changed vets. The new vet said that for digestive issues, they always start with both a probiotic and a drug that eliminates parasites. If this doesn't resolve the issues, then we needed to go back for other tests. The vet provided a one week supply of those items.After just a few days on these pills, my dog was no longer having problems. I also noticed additional changes. Her coat, which had been very dry to the point of getting scaly, was improving greatly. Her breath had been terrible for a while, and now it was normal. I was sure it was the probiotic that caused these changes, not the parasite drug (for reasons that will take longer to explain than I have time for now).So I did my research, and selected Probiotic Miracle as the probiotic I wanted for my dog. Seven months later, and she is doing great. No digestive issues, and the dry skin and bad breath is a thing of the past. Probiotic Miracle was significantly cheaper than the probiotic that the vet gave us, which is also available on Amazon. But price was not a factor for me in choosing this product, I chose it because my research showed it to be better than others.Many probiotics need to be refrigerated. This one does not, but since it contains live cultures, I chose to keep it refrigerated anyway. It certainly cannot hurt, and might just help. Probiotics also lose their effectiveness with age, so don't buy more product than you need. You might also want to dispose of any left over after the expiration date. I took a piece of masking date, wrote the date we received the product from Amazon and started to use it (Jan. 17, 2018), then taped it to the bottom of the container. The date stamped on the container is 11/18, so that should give you an idea of the shelf life.The only problem I had was with customer support, using the phone number that they provide. I called at least 4 times over a period of several days, and never once talked to a person. You have to leave a phone message, and they never call you back. I read other complaints about this too in the reviews. They almost lost a potential customer because of this. However, if you contact them through Amazon, their support is absolutely excellent. So contact them through Amazon rather than phone if you have questions.If you need a probiotic for your dog, I would highly recommend this one.Update: several reviews complain that no scoop is included. The 1/8 tsp plastic scoop is buried inside the jar.Jan 2020 Update: My dog is now 10 1/2 years old, and has been on this product for 2 1/2 years now. She still has not had any digestive problems since taking Probiotic Miracle. However, recently her coat was getting dry again, probably due to older age. After about 3 month of this dryness, I increased the amount I has giving her by about 1/2 scoop, and her coat quickly improved and is now very soft again. I'm sure it is due to this product.May, 2023 Update: My dog is now almost 14 and still using Probiotic Miracle. She recently had to go on an antibiotic, which did its job but apparently messed up her beneficial gut bacteria. I contacted the company regarding dosage questions and never received a reply. Tried both leaving a message and also email. I also had a problem with my last order which had a Best Buy Date of just 2 months. They said they would send me a replacement but sent the small size. I clearly stated I had ordered the large size. I'm very disappointed in their continued poor customer service, so am reducing my 5-star rating to 4-star.
