In today's VETgirl podcast, we interview Dr. Michael Lappin, DACVIM, Professor at Colorado State University, on all things probiotics in dogs and cats. What are the "pros" of using probiotics in our veterinary patients, and is it more than just supplementing yogurt? While probiotics are designed to boost healthy gut bacteria (and hence, why they are used with gastrointestinal [GI] conditions), what other non-GI conditions should probiotics be considered in? What's the latest in veterinary studies when it comes to probiotics, and are probiotics beneficial for cats with stress-related conditions (e.g., upper respiratory infections!)? More importantly, how do we veterinary professionals choose which type of probiotic to use? Learn it in this VETgirl podcast!
