Does my horse need a probiotic? 

Nearly all animals at some point during their lives will suffer from digestive upsets of some kind or another and in some cases this results in diarrhoea or scouring.  Disruption to the digestive system can also cause mal-absorption of foods affecting the overall health and well being of your animal as well as mood and behaviour.

What can upset the digestive system of a horse?

The majority of horse owners will worm their animals, travel with their horses and change their food (including weaning).  Most animals will be vaccinated , possibly undergo surgery followed by a course of antibiotics.  All of these can have an affect on the beneficial gut bacteria.

As for humans, you can provide your horses with a concentrated  multistain probiotic that will flood the gut with millions of beneficial bacteria helping to restore the digestive system to healthy gut function.
