How is Gut Flora Created

  1. Puppies in the womb don’t have any flora in their gut.
  2. The first good bacteria attach themselves to the intestinal wall during birth.
  3. All the time puppies are drinking milk the gut flora is chiefly made up of good bifidobacterial that produce acids to kill the harmful bacteria.
  4. The transition to solid food happens gradually to give acid-resistant bacteria the chance to become established.
  5. Eating raw meat ensures the growth and maintenance of healthy and balanced gut flora. Dry food is always sterile, which reduces the number of good bacteria and makes it harder for your dog to fight infections. In the worst case, just drinking from a puddle could then make him ill. Take care of your dog’s gut flora factory by giving him the right foods!
