Hi there! It's great that you're taking steps to help your pup feel better. Proviable Forte is a probiotic supplement that can help support your dog's digestive health, so you’re on the right track. Dogs, like people, respond differently to probiotics, but you might start seeing improvement in their symptoms—like less diarrhea, better stool consistency, and decreased gas—within a week or two.
For your picky eater, try mixing the probiotic capsule contents into a small amount of canned food or a tasty treat that she loves. If she really likes something specific, like peanut butter, that can be a great way to mask the taste.
While waiting for the probiotics to work, monitor her symptoms. If she's acting normal otherwise—eating, drinking, and playing as usual—you can have some peace of mind. However, if you notice:
- Blood in the stool
- Vomiting that doesn't stop
- Lethargy or severe fatigue
- A sudden refusal to eat
- Signs of dehydration, like dry gums or sunken eyes
These could be signs of something more serious, and you'd want to call a vet. Otherwise, ensure she stays hydrated—offer her plenty of fresh, clean water. If her symptoms persist longer than three weeks, or if she starts losing weight, that’s another reason to seek professional advice.
If you're unsure or your pet’s symptoms worsen, it's best to book a call with a vet on Dial A Vet for professional advice.
