VETRISCIENCE Fast Balance GI Paste, 35cc – Gastro Support

My dog loves these probiotics. She digs them out of her food bowl before she starts to eat!

Simply put it works. Tummy aches. Tummy issues. I put the correct amount in a small bowl and dip my finger in it and smear some quickly onto the roof of my dogs mouth. I do this until its gone from the bowl. I use the “vet method” to give him this stuff. Look it up for some help. It worked. This paste hasnt let me down when I needed it. It saved me a two trips to the vet. My dog has severe acid reflux and this is a huge help for us. I ordered another one just to have on hand. I highly recommend.its not supposed to taste good. Its medicine. So i am not going to pick apart the products’ appearance, taste or smell. Every pet owner should have this in my opinion.

Update: this stuff is still absolutely wonderful. I have had to use it several times this past month. My dog’s stomach acid acts up if we dont get up by 4 am every single morning for a snack. When this happens he wont even go near any type of food or treats. This paste works in sometimes ten mins. Sometimes, 20-30. But it has yet to let me down. I still open his mouth putting my finger only on his front bottom teeth and stick the product on the roof of his mouth very quickly. Side teeth they bite down. But if all my fingers stay in the front, he wont bite down. Hes super gentle anyway. I do like to spray his mouth with a little water to help the product work its way down faster but not enough to dilute it. I also dont put too much on my finger at once because then he can spit it out. Just a little at a time while speaking words of encouragement so hes not scared as prying a dogs mouth open can be kinda traumatic. This lets him know everything is ok. I just love this stuff and I wanted to help. SO many reviews on dog products and supplements have helped me out throughout the years and I have depended on them. I wanted to give back.

Preface: My review is only one star because I couldn’t get the medicine in my cat so I don’t know if it works or not.

I really wish I could’ve gotten this into my cat, it might’ve been helpful. He’s just 8 pounds, but he made it nearly impossible to administer this medicine in him. First of all, the tube does have a plunger (think giant plastic syringe) but the tip is very large for his very little mouth. Also, the entire plunger thing was huge and my hands weren’t big enough to be in the right position to hold it in his mouth and push the plunger at the same time. I really needed an extra hand.

Even with help and using the cat in a towel burrito trick, it wouldn’t stay in his mouth, we couldn’t get him to swallow it. It was a flinging gel fest. This is supposed to be given twice a day. I had help in the evenings but even with me holding the cat wrapped in a towel and my husband working the plunger, it didn’t work.

It’s truly amazing how strong a little 8 pound cat can be when they do not want something.

Doing it by myself was awful. It takes a quite a bit of the medicine, too. A big glob. Unfortunately, the time I did get it in his mouth he shook his head and it flew everywhere! It’s like a gel, it cleans up easily off a hard surface but if it had gone on fabric that would be a different story.

As far as mixing it in with food they like, that didn’t work either. I used a fork and some can food to mix it all up and he wouldn’t touch it. I have 2 other cats and they wouldn’t touch it either. I put some on my finger to let him smell it and he winced and was repelled by the smell.

Lastly, I tried to smear it into his mouth from my finger and on his paws and it was terrible. He flung it everywhere shaking his head and then ran off to sulk trying to get it off his paws (which I had to clean off later, because he wouldn’t lick it). I had more of it on me than in him.

I finally gave up. I don’t think any ever got into his system. It was a waste. I wish they made it in a powder form, then maybe you could put it in with a can of real tuna and that might work.

I was really hoping this would work. I’m still dealing with lots of vomiting. Trying different foods seems to be all I can do at this point. We have a vet appointment next week.

Zeus (my dog) has Crohn’s disease. In Februray 2016 he became a medicinal cannabis patient and has been comfortable and controlled almost 100% eve since. The only time I noticed tummy pain/grumbling after beginning the cannabis was when I wasn’t home with him. Giving him one of these probiotic chews before going out completely stops this painful tummy for him! Very happy to have this product to supplement while I’m away!

Only thing that works for my 14 year old Persian who gets sick when she eats too fast

My dog tends to get upset stomach often, and when I discovered this product, it solved the problem. No more tummy aches or upsets for my pooch. I’m very pleased with how effective this is for dealing with dog stomach issues. It’s so good I now have it auto-delivered every 6 months to make sure I always have a tube.

It calms my dog’s stomach right away. I highly recommend!
