Problems with the intestine can be well identified through digestion and the consistency of the stool. Starting with bloating, restlessness, and abdominal pain, to increased attempts to defecate, up to too soft or too hard stool. If digestive problems persist or if you have other concerns, it is advisable to consult your veterinarian.

Food for digestive problems should contain easily digestible proteins such as chicken meat to relieve the gastrointestinal tract. Dietary fibers from sweet potato, carrot, or psyllium husks promote healthy digestion and regulate bowel movements. Probiotics and prebiotics help balance the gut flora and improve digestive function. Easily digestible carbohydrates like rice or quinoa are gentle on the stomach. Supplemental fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals strengthen your dog's intestinal wall and immune system.

Low-fat food with highly digestible ingredients can be more tolerable for dogs with intestinal problems. This includes varieties with lean meat, valuable fibers such as carrots and psyllium husks, and gentle carbohydrates like rice.

Fresh, clean water, sufficient exercise, and healthy food are three important factors for a healthy digestion. If your dog has acute diarrhea, you can feed a light diet for a day or go on a fasting diet. If the condition does not improve after 2 days, you should contact a veterinarian.

If your dog has suffered from a gastrointestinal disease, there are probiotic products (e.g., pastes) available at veterinarians specifically for the development of the intestinal flora. For long-term support and maintenance of the intestinal flora, a diet with pre-, pro- or postbiotics can be fed.

To support your dog's digestion, focus on a high-quality diet, regular meals, and sufficient fluid intake. Pay attention to dietary fiber, e.g., from sweet potato, carrot, or psyllium husks, and provide probiotics to strengthen the gut flora.
