Dr. Mercola Digestive Enzymes Dog & Cat Supplement, 5.29-oz jar

My puppy had been on kibble the whole first year of his life. I bought this to help his digestion while doing a cold turkey switch to a raw food diet. It's tough to say if my dog would have transitioned easily anyways without this, but what we did notice while using this was there was very little if any digestional upset during the transition while giving him this with his raw meals. We continue to use it even after he's been on his new diet for more than two months and we like it.

I rescued a German Shepherd with EPI (Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency) - when I got her, she was 4 years old and only 22.8#. She was eating up to 6 cups of food per day, but not absorbing the nutrients, and monster poops. With this Dr Mercola Enzyme Powder, she was up to 33# in 3 weeks, and 58# within another 6 weeks! (And while eating only 3 cups food total per day) She is thriving now! I am mixing Blue Buffalo with a little water, mix to start breaking down the food, and then 1 scoop of powder per cup of food, let sit ~10 minutes and serve.

I expected to see a change, based on comments from puppy professionals and owners regarding the benefits of these dietary aids.

I so wanted to add this to my dogs diet. However, neither of my dogs will eat. I’ll look for another enzyme product that’ll perhaps be more enticing to them.

We add to our English bulldogs food it helps him digest his food better. He is 3 yrs old and with this product he doesn’t try to eat his brother and sister’s feces.

Important - how to use on cats. I found a holistic treatment for cats that worked very well. You must mix the dose with a little water, then give to the cat in a syringe. You must then wait 30 minutes before feeding. This gives time for the enzymes to work. If you let the cats eat before 30 minutes, the enzymes will "eat" the food instead. Do this for 8 days, rest 7 days and then repeat 8 days. From a holistic French Canadian Vet - I cannot remember her name. Works incredibly well! My kittens had no more bowel problems and that was 3 years ago. They ate 3 times a day so they were dosed 3 times a day. Hope this helps.

My dogs ate this without even noticing it and for my male it does seem to be improving his loose stools. They are now firm and much less smelly.

I use this everyday with my dog! It works great for bathroom problems and helps her transition on to new foods smoother.

My 1.5 yr. old westie seems to have a sensitive digestion system, so I put her on a probiotic which helped, but she still would have a sour stomach every couple of weeks. I added the digestive enzymes which seemed to do the trick. She finally is eating on a regular basis now, meals stay down & poops looking good. I can tell she is feeling much better now too.

I bought this supplement because Dr. Mercola's products can be trusted to contain the safest natural contents. I can add the supplement to my pet's food and know it's getting quality. There is no taste to the Digestive Enzymes, so when mixed in the wet food with a tiny bit of water, all is eaten. This supplement is so beneficial to a pet.
