Abstract
The functioning of the digestive system and its condition are extremely important for overall health of pets. Stimulates intestinal ecosystem undisturbed animal’s immune system, protects dogs and cats against pathogens and provide adequate nutrients. Proper nutrition is therefore one of the prerequisites for proper homeostasis of the organism. Too broad use of antibiotics and their side effects resulted in large interest in using probiotics for prophylactic and therapeutic. Supplementing rations with appropriate species of bacteria with probiotic properties certified, allows you to maintain homeostasis in the gastrointestinal tract of the animal, increasing tolerance to adverse environmental stimuli, helps digestion and increases the digestibility of feed ingredients, and for the use of antibiotics for treatment accelerates the recovery period.
