Best Probiotic for Shih Tzu Dogs with flatulence
I'm sorry your Shih Tzu is dealing with unpleasant gas — that can be stressful for both of you. Gentle diet tweaks, feeding habits, and ProBelly's soil-based probiotics may help support gut health and reduce flatulence alongside your vet's guidance.
Why Gut Health Matters for Shih Tzu Dogs with flatulence
In Shih Tzu dogs, chronic flatulence can indicate excess gas production that disrupts normal digestion and may reduce nutrient absorption. Maintaining a balanced gut microbiome helps control gas-producing bacteria, supports regular digestion, and promotes efficient breakdown of food. Because the gut influences immunity, skin, energy and weight, ongoing digestive upset from flatulence may contribute to discomfort, poorer vitality, and secondary health issues if not addressed.
How Soil‑Based Probiotics Help
ProBelly's Bacillus coagulans can help Shih Tzu dogs by producing lactic acid and digestive enzymes that support balanced gut microbes and may reduce gas and bloating.
ProBelly's Bacillus indicus is a spore-forming probiotic that may help stabilize the intestinal microbiome in Shih Tzus, supporting digestion and decreasing gas-producing bacterial overgrowth.
ProBelly's Saccharomyces boulardii, a beneficial yeast, can support Shih Tzu gut resilience by competing with harmful microbes, modulating inflammation, and helping reduce occasional gas and discomfort.
