Why Your Dog’s Tummy Health Matters
Digestive health doesn’t just affect poop — it influences your dog’s energy, skin, mood, and immunity. Many common signs like loose stools, excessive gas, dull coat, or low appetite may indicate that their current food isn’t the right match.
A healthy gut = better digestion, stronger immunity, and visible vitality.
Signs Your Dog’s Food May Not Be a Good Fit
Irregular or soft poop
Excessive flatulence or bloating
Dull coat or itchy skin
Low appetite or frequent skipping of meals
- Lethargy or sudden weight changes
