Pumpkin Powder & Chicory Root (Prebiotics)
Pumpkin powder is a natural source of soluble fiber that slows digestion and feeds beneficial gut bacteria. Chicory root contains inulin, one of the most studied prebiotic fibers in small animal nutrition. Together, they prepare the gut environment so the probiotics that follow have somewhere to take hold.
Probiotic Blend — 1.1 Billion CFU (7 Strains)
Seven strains of live bacteria — including Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus casei, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and Bacillus coagulans — work across different sites in the digestive tract. More strains means broader coverage. 1.1 billion CFU per chew is a meaningful daily dose for a small dog — calibrated to the size of the animal, not borrowed from a large-breed formula.
Protease (Aspergillus oryzae) — 20 HUT per chew
Protease breaks down dietary proteins into smaller peptides the gut can absorb. This matters most for dogs on high-protein diets, dogs with food sensitivities, or any dog whose gut isn't processing efficiently. Derived from Aspergillus oryzae, a well-tolerated fungal source used widely in pet nutrition.
Lipase (Rhizopus oryzae) — 20 FIP per chew
Lipase is the enzyme responsible for breaking down dietary fat. Without adequate lipase, fat passes through the digestive tract unabsorbed, contributing to loose stools and nutrient loss. This formula includes a meaningful dose to support fat digestion across all diet types.
Bromelain (Pineapple Stem) — 9 mg per chew
Bromelain is a natural proteolytic enzyme extracted from pineapple stem. It supports the broader digestive process alongside the other enzymes in this formula — a purposeful addition to a chew already working hard on breakdown and absorption.
