Best Probiotic for Chihuahua Dogs with small intestinal malabsorption
I'm sorry your Chihuahua is dealing with small intestinal malabsorption — that can feel worrying for an owner. ProBelly's soil-based probiotics may help support gut health and comfort while you work with your vet.
Why Gut Health Matters for Chihuahua Dogs with small intestinal malabsorption
In Chihuahuas with small intestinal malabsorption, the damaged intestinal lining reduces absorption of fats, proteins and other nutrients, so food may pass without proper digestion and cause weight loss and greasy, loose stools. A balanced gut—healthy mucosa, digestive enzymes and a stable microbiome—supports better nutrient uptake, limits inflammation and reduces harmful bacterial overgrowth. Because Chihuahuas have small reserves, ongoing malabsorption and gut imbalance can lead to chronic weight loss, low energy and poorer coat condition, so tailored diet and monitoring are important.
How Soil‑Based Probiotics Help
ProBelly's Bacillus coagulans may help modulate gut microbiota and support short-chain fatty acid production in Chihuahua dogs with small intestinal malabsorption, potentially improving intestinal environment and nutrient uptake.
ProBelly's Bacillus indicus may produce digestive enzymes and promote barrier integrity in Chihuahua dogs with small intestinal malabsorption, helping support digestion and reduce microbial imbalances.
ProBelly's Saccharomyces boulardii may help stabilize intestinal function and reduce inflammation in Chihuahua dogs with small intestinal malabsorption, supporting mucosal recovery and more consistent nutrient absorption.
