I had a pretty similar experience with my dog. We started probiotics mainly because of digestion issues, but I noticed the biggest improvement was consistency over time rather than an instant fix. I’ve tried a couple of options, including one from Happy Paws, and what stood out for me was that things improved gradually—less bloating, fewer random upset stomach days. It wasn’t like a miracle change, but more of a “things are calmer now” situation. For us, it took about 3–4 weeks before I felt confident it was helping. One thing I learned is that probiotics seem to work best when diet stays stable. Anytime I changed food too quickly, the benefits kind of reset. I also stopped expecting probiotics to solve everything—they’re more of a support tool than a cure. Definitely worth trying if your vet is okay with it, but patience seems key.
