Dog gut health

Dogs get upset stomachs for many of the same reasons us humans do - they eat something they shouldn’t, they chow down too quickly, or they’re dealing with a nasty allergy. In some cases, vomiting and diarrhoea is a sign of something more serious, like parasites or bacteria. 

While a pretty common occurrence, an upset stomach is usually short-lived and treatable. Gastrointestinal medicine for dogs can help relieve some of your pooch’s discomfort.
