Why your dog's gut health matters
A large share of a dog's immune system sits in and around the digestive tract, and the trillions of bacteria living there influence far more than digestion. When the balance of good and bad bacteria is right, your dog breaks food down efficiently, absorbs the nutrients from every meal, and produces firm, regular stools. When that balance is disturbed, it often shows up as loose stools, wind, an unsettled stomach, a dull coat or a dog that is simply not quite themselves.
Gut balance can be knocked off course by everyday things: a change of food, scavenging on walks, stress from travel or kennels, a course of medication, or the natural changes that come with age. A daily probiotic is one of the simplest ways to help your dog's gut stay on an even keel through all of it.
How HighV Probiotic Dog Treats work
Most probiotic supplements do one job: they add beneficial bacteria. HighV Probiotic Dog Treats do two. The probiotic tops up the good bacteria, and the prebiotic gives those bacteria the food they need to establish themselves and thrive. Nutritionists call this pairing a synbiotic, and it is why the two ingredients are more effective together than either would be alone.
Because the active ingredients are built into a soft, liver-flavoured chew, there is nothing to hide in food or measure out. Your dog gets a consistent dose every day, which matters: probiotics work through daily consistency rather than a one-off boost.
Key active ingredients (per chew)
Enterococcus faecium, 1 billion CFU
Enterococcus faecium is one of the most widely used and best-studied probiotic strains in canine nutrition, and it is authorised in the UK and EU as a gut-flora stabiliser for dogs. It is robust enough to survive the journey through the stomach and reach the intestine, where it helps maintain a healthy population of beneficial bacteria and supports a stable, consistent digestion. CFU (colony forming units) is the measure of live, viable bacteria in each chew; 1 billion CFU per chew gives a small dog a full daily serving in one chew and a large dog 3 billion CFU across three.
Chicory inulin, 100mg
Inulin is a soluble prebiotic fibre extracted from chicory root. Dogs cannot digest it themselves, so it passes to the large intestine intact, where it is fermented by beneficial bacteria. In other words it is food for the probiotic and for the good bacteria your dog already has, helping them multiply and hold their ground against less helpful strains.
Supporting natural ingredients
The chew base is made from wholesome ingredients chosen to complement the actives rather than pad them out. Linseed provides omega-3 fatty acids and gentle fibre. Beet pulp is a well-tolerated source of fermentable fibre that supports stool quality. Coconut oil offers easily digested medium-chain fats. Brewer's yeast brings B vitamins and natural palatability. Rosemary extract with tocopherols keeps the chews fresh naturally, with no artificial preservatives.
Signs your dog may benefit from a probiotic
- Stools that vary from day to day, from loose to overly firm
- Frequent or unusually smelly wind
- Gurgling stomach, occasional vomiting or eating grass
- Bad breath that persists despite dental care
- Recovering from a change of diet, a stressful period, or a course of medication
- Itchy skin, dull coat or excessive shedding with no obvious cause
- A fussy or sensitive stomach that reacts to new treats or foods
- Senior dogs whose digestion is not what it used to be
If your dog has ongoing diarrhoea, blood in their stool, weight loss or is off their food, speak to your vet first. Probiotics support a healthy gut; they are not a treatment for illness.
What to expect, and when
Every dog is different, but most owners notice changes along a similar path when the chews are given every day.
- First week: your dog starts looking forward to their daily chew. Some dogs have slightly softer stools or a little extra wind as the gut adjusts; this usually settles within a few days.
- Weeks 2 to 4: stools typically become firmer and more consistent, and wind reduces as the beneficial bacteria establish themselves.
- Week 6 onwards: a settled digestion, better nutrient absorption and the knock-on benefits owners often report, such as a glossier coat and steadier energy.
For the best results give the chews every day rather than only when a problem appears, and allow at least four to six weeks before judging the effect.
Feeding guide
| Dog weight | Daily amount | One tub lasts |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 10kg | 1 soft chew | 60 days |
| 10kg to 30kg | 2 soft chews | 30 days |

Frequently asked questions
Do HighV Probiotic Dog Treats contain CBD?
No. These chews contain no CBD, hemp or THC. The active ingredients are the probiotic Enterococcus faecium and the prebiotic chicory inulin. We sell them alongside our CBD pet range because many customers want both, but they are completely separate products and can be used together or on their own.
What do probiotics actually do for dogs?
Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria. Given daily, they help maintain a healthy balance of microbes in your dog's gut, which supports normal digestion, consistent stools, nutrient absorption and the large part of the immune system that lives in the digestive tract. They are a maintenance supplement rather than a medicine.
What is the difference between a probiotic and a prebiotic?
A probiotic is the beneficial bacteria itself. A prebiotic is a type of fibre those bacteria feed on. HighV Probiotic Dog Treats contain both: 1 billion CFU of Enterococcus faecium and 100mg of chicory inulin, so the bacteria arrive with their own food supply.
How long do probiotics take to work in dogs?
Some owners see firmer stools within the first week or two, but the beneficial bacteria need time to establish. Allow four to six weeks of daily use for the full effect, and keep going: the benefit depends on consistency.
Can I give these to my puppy?
Yes, from 12 weeks of age. Puppies under 10kg need just one chew a day. Adjust the amount as they grow using the feeding guide above.
Are probiotic treats safe for senior dogs?
Yes. Older dogs often have less resilient digestion, and a daily probiotic is a gentle way to support it. If your senior dog is on long-term medication, mention the supplement to your vet at their next check-up.
Are there any side effects?
Probiotics are very well tolerated. A small number of dogs have slightly softer stools or a little extra wind in the first few days as the gut adjusts, which normally settles on its own. If you prefer, start with half the recommended amount for the first three or four days. Stop and contact your vet if you notice anything that concerns you.
What happens if my dog eats too many?
These chews are a complementary food, not a medicine, so an extra chew or two is unlikely to cause anything more than a looser stool. If a dog gets into the tub and eats a large number, watch for an upset stomach and contact your vet if you are worried. Keep the tub closed and out of reach.
Can I give them with other supplements or medication?
They can be given alongside other supplements, including other HighV chews and CBD oil. If your dog is on prescription medication, especially antibiotics, ask your vet about timing; many vets suggest giving probiotics a few hours apart from an antibiotic dose and continuing for a couple of weeks afterwards.
Why Enterococcus faecium rather than the strains in human probiotics?
Dogs have a different gut environment from people, and the strains that suit them are different too. Enterococcus faecium is one of the few strains authorised for use in dog food in the UK and EU, it survives stomach acid well, and it has been studied in dogs specifically. Human probiotic products are not formulated or dosed for dogs.
How many chews are in a tub and how long will it last?
Each tub contains 60 soft chews. That is two months for a dog under 10kg, one month for a dog of 10 to 30kg, and around three weeks for a dog over 30kg.
Do I need to keep them in the fridge?
No. Keep the tub sealed in a cool, dry cupboard away from sunlight. Heat and moisture are what reduce the viability of live bacteria, so avoid leaving the tub in a car or by a radiator.
Will my dog actually eat them?
Almost always. They are soft, natural liver-flavoured chews that most dogs treat as a reward rather than a supplement. If your dog is unusually fussy, break the chew into pieces and mix it into their food for the first few days.
Are these treats suitable for dogs with grain sensitivities?
The chew base uses potato, tapioca and linseed rather than wheat, maize or rice. They do contain peanut butter and brewer's yeast, so check the full ingredients list if your dog has a known sensitivity to either.
Daily gut support your dog will look forward to
A settled stomach, consistent stools and a dog that gets the most from every meal start with a balanced gut. HighV Probiotic Dog Treats make that simple: one liver-flavoured chew a day with a proven probiotic strain and the prebiotic fibre to feed it, in a treat your dog will remind you about. Add a tub to your basket and give your dog's digestion the daily support it deserves.
