The Conductor of Your Dog’s Health
The microbiome acts as a conductor, orchestrating the harmonious operation of various bodily systems. A balanced microbiome is essential for overall health, as disruptions can lead to digestive disorders, immune dysfunctions, and stress and anxiety issues. Maintaining equilibrium within the microbiome supports digestion, nutrient absorption, immune regulation, and communication between the gut and brain.
While there is nothing more precious than a mother’s love, the germs she passes on to her puppies are nearly as important. Puppies inherit a wealth of beneficial bacteria from their mothers, primarily through breastfeeding and their passage through the birth canal if born vaginally.
These bacteria enter the puppy’s gut, forming the foundation of a developing microbiome. The microbiome evolves and adapts throughout the puppy's life. When a puppy starts eating solid food, it is introduced to a new set of microorganisms. Additionally, interactions with other dogs and people further enhance bacterial diversity.
This intricate process is crucial for the puppy’s health, as a diverse and balanced microbiome supports digestion, nutrient absorption, immune function, and overall well-being.
Maintaining a healthy microbiome is best achieved through a fresh, balanced diet and regular exercise. While antibiotics and modern food hygiene offer significant benefits, they have also reduced our exposure to beneficial bacteria. Additionally, processed, fiber-poor foods provide limited nourishment for our microbiomes.
To further support microbiome diversity, it is beneficial to supplement a healthy diet with postbiotics. Postbiotics contain bacterial strains specifically selected to enhance gut health, promoting a robust and balanced microbiome.
In recent decades, our understanding of the microbiome has expanded significantly, yet much remains to be discovered. As we delve deeper into this intricate internal ecosystem, we unravel processes that were once shrouded in mystery, paving the way for groundbreaking innovations in health and wellness.
This is only the beginning. We invite you to stay informed and join us on this exciting journey of discovery and advancement.
Recent research has revealed that children and dogs within the same household share gut microbes, and these microbes can be influenced by a canine probiotic. A new study examined the impact of a household dog on children's gut microbiota, both before and after the dogs were administered a postbiotic.
The findings demonstrated that not only do the gut microbiota of dogs and children in the same household share common characteristics, but also that the gut microbes of both children and dogs shifted following the administration of the postbiotic to the dogs. This suggests a significant interaction between canine postbiotics and the gut health of household members, highlighting the interconnected nature of microbiota within a shared environment.
Stable, Reliable, and Essential for Your Dog’s Gut Health and Overall Well-being
Revolutionizing Canine Health with Postbiotics
Postbiotics are revolutionising canine health by providing a stable and reliable alternative to probiotics. Research suggests that postbiotics are the primary agents delivering the beneficial effects typically attributed to probiotics. Unlike probiotics, which can be compromised by external factors, postbiotics are stable, non-living compounds that offer direct and lasting health benefits. Scientific studies have highlighted the critical role of gut health in overall well-being, demonstrating that a healthy microbiome is essential for your dog's digestive health, immune function, and even stress levels.
Postbiotics are beneficial by-products produced when probiotics consume prebiotics. These include short-chain fatty acids, enzymes, vitamins, and amino acids. Typically produced in the gut, these metabolites significantly contribute to gut health and overall bodily functions. At Activ Dog Health, we replicate this natural process in the lab through a method called Microbiome ASSIST. This approach avoids contamination risks and ensures the production of essential end products the gut needs, promoting inner health and supporting a robust immune system.
A balanced microbiome not only enhances digestion but also helps minimize diarrhea, reduce skin rashes, assist with anxiety issues, fight infections, aid post-antibiotic recovery, reduce and prevent yeast infections, and decrease paw licking and scratching.
Achieving a healthy microbiome requires maintaining the right balance of good and bad bacteria. Activ Daily supports this balance by providing a consistent supply of beneficial postbiotics. Incorporating postbiotics into your dog's daily routine ensures they receive the full spectrum of health-promoting metabolites, resulting in a healthier and happier life. Once Activ Daily addresses your dog's health issues, it acts as a safeguard for the immune system, naturally protecting your dog's health. This holistic approach focuses on fixing the underlying causes rather than just treating the symptoms.
Postbiotics support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut, helping to strengthen the gut lining, improve nutrient absorption, reduce inflammation, and maintain a balanced microbiome. This advancement in gut health opens up a range of innovative products designed to support your dog's overall vitality and happiness. By leveraging the power of postbiotics, you can ensure your dog enjoys the benefits of a balanced, healthy microbiome, contributing to their overall well-being and longevity.

Understanding Your Dog's Gut Microbiome
Postbiotics: Probiotics Perfected
Just like us, dogs have trillions of tiny organisms—microbes like bacteria, fungi, and viruses—living in their gastrointestinal tracts. Collectively known as the gut microbiome, these little organisms perform amazing and essential tasks for your dog. They help digest food, protect against disease, and maintain a beautiful coat, among many other important functions. Keeping your dog's gut microbiome balanced is key to their overall health and well-being.
At Activ Dog Health, we focus on treating the root cause of health issues, often a compromised immune system, rather than merely addressing symptoms. With a profound understanding of the canine microbiome, we offer advanced solutions to support your dog's optimal health. Our commitment to excellence is backed by years of research and development, ensuring our products meet the highest standards of quality and effectiveness.
Our research, conducted in collaboration with leading veterinarians, has successfully addressed the challenge of protecting delicate beneficial bacteria from contamination. By blending prebiotics and probiotics in a pristine lab environment, we ensure your dog receives the full spectrum of benefits necessary for optimal health.
