This answer partially depends on what the problem is. However, the most common thing we will recommend for GI health is probiotics (often in conjunction with pre-biotics). Probiotics are the good bacteria in the GI tract that help it stay healthy. There are a number of products on the market. Some are more complete than others. One good product is called Entero TruBenefits. You can find that here. http://www.vrshealth.com/canine-products/?petcoach=1977957 Nutramax makes a good formula called ProViable. And VetriScience makes a nice probiotic formula that is comes in a chewable tablet. I hope that was helpful and answered your question. Thanks for using PetCoach.
