Product Overview How it Works What's Inside Reviews

DoggyBiome™ Gut Restore Supplement from Naturally Reared Dogs is a unique fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) in a capsule designed to restore dog health. Convenient capsules are an alternative to surgical FMT, which is equally effective but more invasive and less convenient.


Gut Restore Supplement from Naturally Reared Dogs seeds the gut with beneficial, dog-specific bacteria to help restore the gut to a more balanced state. Gut Restore Supplement from Naturally Reared Dogs is superior to probiotics and prescription diets because it contains a complete, healthy, and well-functioning community of gut microorganisms.


Gut Restore Supplement from Naturally Reared Dogs addresses chronic digestive issues and skin conditions in dogs, including diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, itchy skin, and atopic dermatitis.


Helpful Supplement for Dog Digestive and Skin Issues:

  • Supports well-formed and easy-to-pass poop
  • Fast-acting and gentle
  • Restores digestive and immune health
  • Soothes the intestinal tract
  • Improves clinical signs in 80% of dogs
  • Promotes healthy skin and coat
  • Veterinarian recommended

Give capsules whole, by mouth, for at least 30 days. Do not open or crush capsules.


If your dog is particularly sensitive to new supplements, we recommend starting by giving just 1 capsule and waiting 3-4 days before giving the next one. Then, you can gradually move towards more frequent dosing.


If your dog is currently stable, give 1 capsule daily for the first 3 days, then progress to more frequent dosing according to this dosing chart.


Active ingredient: extensively-screened canine fecal material sourced from healthy donors living a holistic lifestyle and eating a plant-based diet supplemented with raw meat.


The fecal material in Gut Restore Supplement from Naturally Reared dogs comes from Dr. Margo Roman’s donor dogs. These dogs live a holistic lifestyle, and consume a plant-based diet supplemented with raw meat. In this context, a holistic lifestyle means that the dogs are treated for any illnesses using primarily holistic methods, have never used antibiotics, and have limited exposure to to commercial heartworm preventatives. All donors and their stool must meet AnimalBiome’s rigorous Donor Screening Program criteria.


Inactive ingredients: food-grade glycerol and vegan acid-resistant capsule.


This is a natural product. Some variation in color is normal.

It works! I am thrilled!

This is our second round of Gut Restore Supplements and we are very happy with the results. Our golden girl was super itchy with raw feet, hot spots, diarrhea non stop and ear inflammation. We have an improvement of 85% - no more crazy scratching and biting until she bleeds. No more diarrhea. I am so very thankful for this company! All vets gave up on us, they wanted to put her on apoquel and other stuff. I do natural rearing with my girl, so we choose this option. We will retest and I think will see huge improvements in her beneficial gut bacteria. It took us a year now to get her to the state, that she can be left alone again without chewing herself bloody. That was almost impossible last year.

Glad we have access to these

Our girl had to have a finger removed (thankfully it wasn't cancer but rather turned out to be a cyst that was absorbed by her bone and was causing serious pain). The vet wasn't initially sure what the issue was (x-rays were not definitive) and put her on a round of antibiotics in case it was an ascending infection. It wasn't. After the amputation she was also on a course of antibiotics. Once the second round of antibiotics was completed we used the Gut Restore to help repopulate her gut with good bacteria that were probably killed off by the antibiotics. I am grateful to have access to Gut Restore to help get her back on the road to good health.

It worked!

After running the test it was obvious our little Bichon's microbiome was out of balance, although we had been giving her daily probiotics. We gave her the 30 day course of Gut Restore. We gave her 1 every other day for 2 weeks, then the rest daily. She had absolutely no issues with this. We then did a retest and the results were terrific. She has much better diversity and increased colonies of the beneficial bacteria. It's only been a month, but we already do see much less itching body wide and much less reaction to grass on her legs and paws. Long term we can see if her body chemistry and blood work improves.

We will certainly test again in about 6 months to see if her microbiome grows and thrives. We chose the one from Naturally Reared Dogs. What's another $40 in the whole scheme of things.

The staff has been very helpful and I encourage studying all the available material from AnimalBiome, as well as other microbiome material from trusted sources. For us it provided a great learning experience and opened a whole new world of important consideration. Money well spent!

Game changer for our dog.

Our golden was struggling after possibly eating listeria/salmonella contaminated food. Diarrhea on and off for months even with a cooked bland diet. Testing showed nothing. It took only a week or so for Gut Restore to start to work. We kept him on it as recommended for a month. That was several months ago and we have not had an issue since then. I cannot recommend this product enough if you are encountering a diarrhea problem.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose the Gut Restore Supplement from naturally reared dogs, raw-fed dogs, or “regular” dogs?

The decision of which variation of Gut Restore Supplement to use is based on personal preference. All of AnimalBiome’s stool bank donors meet the same rigorous criteria, and all Gut Restore Supplement options are equally safe and effective. Premium formulations of the Gut Restore Supplement, such as raw-fed and naturally reared, are available for pet parents who prefer to use them.

What is a fecal microbiota transplant (FMT)?

A fecal microbiota transplant (FMT), also called a fecal transplant, is the transfer of stool from a healthy donor to the GI tract of a sick recipient. The stool from the donor contains a diverse, well-functioning community of bacteria that take up residence in the recipient’s gut. FMT is the best-known approach for restoring an imbalanced gut microbiome, and has proven to be an effective treatment in both humans and companion animals like cats and dogs.

 

FMT has been used for hundreds of years in veterinary medicine and for over a thousand years in human medicine. Though modern regulatory entities like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are still determining how to classify it, FMT continues to demonstrate beneficial results for a growing list of human health conditions. For example, FMT is routinely used to treat Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infections. And it provides a promising solution for the low gut bacterial diversity associated with Crohn’s disease (a form of IBD).

What are Gut Restore Supplement (FMT) capsules (poop pills)?

An FMT can be delivered via colonoscopy or enema, but for cats and dogs, these procedures generally require sedation. Our Gut Restore Supplement is an oral FMT capsule that gives your dog the benefits of FMT without the need for surgery or sedation. Containing a proprietary mixture of carefully screened, cryoprotected, freeze-dried donor stool, the Gut Restore Supplement capsules (aka “poop pills”) offer a noninvasive, affordable, at-home alternative for pets suffering from digestive, skin, or immune system issues.

How can the Gut Restore Supplement improve my dog’s health?

By seeding your dog’s microbiome with all the right bacteria in the right proportions, the capsules can help reestablish balance and resolve symptoms. While it varies depending on underlying health conditions, positive results—such as better-formed stool, improved appetite, and less itching – can be seen in as little as 24 hours.

 

When dogs with digestive symptoms, skin issues, or immune system problems are missing certain important gut bacteria, we need to add those missing members to the microbiome and help the new populations grow and thrive.

 

The Gut Restore Supplement provides a whole community of healthy dog-specific microbes. The outer capsule’s acid-resistant coating prevents it from dissolving until it reaches the intestines, where the contents “seed” your dog’s gut with a diverse array of healthy bacteria, restoring any missing groups.

Where do you get the material for Gut Restore Supplement from Naturally Reared dogs?

Our Gut Restore Supplements from naturally reared donors are derived from stool donated from Dr. Margo Roman’s donor dogs. The donor stool comes from healthy pet dogs that live in homes and have been carefully screened for health, age, fecal consistency, behavior, and microbiome composition (based on DNA sequencing). The donor dogs for this product live a holistic life style and consume a plant-based diet supplemented with raw meat.

 

Donor stool samples are submitted for parasite and pathogen screening to the IDEXX Reference Laboratories, the leading veterinary diagnostics company, which has stringent quality control guidelines and well-validated standard operating procedures.

 

All dog donor material is regularly screened for parasites and pathogens.

 

Dogs are screened for the following pathogens via PCR: Clostridium perfringens CPnetEF toxin gene, Clostridium perfringens Enterotoxin Gene, Campylobacter coli, Campylobacter jejuni, canine distemper virus, canine enteric coronavirus, canine parvovirus 2, canine circovirus, Clostridium difficile toxin A, Clostridium difficile toxin B, Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia spp., Salmonella spp.

 

Dogs are screened for the following parasites via ELISA: Hookworms, Roundworms, and Whipworms.

 

Dogs are screened for ova and parasites using fecal floatation.

 

Is the supplement right for my dog?

Dogs of all ages, breeds, health conditions, and with a wide range of symptoms have benefited from the Gut Restore Supplement. The vast majority of dogs see improvement in their digestive issues, food allergies and intolerances, and/or skin issues within one to two months, but sometimes longer.

 

While this supplement is natural and intended to gently repopulate the microbiome, it does contain high numbers of healthy bacteria that can be overwhelming to medically unstable dogs. If your dog is severely underweight or requires frequent hospitalization, we recommend checking with your veterinarian to see if the Gut Restore Supplement is right for your dog.

 

Will this supplement help my dog?

About 80% of dogs that take the Gut Restore Supplement see a significant improvement in their symptoms within one month. However, every dog is different, and the Gut Restore Supplement is not effective for every dog. And in some cases, it can take up to two months to start seeing an improvement.

Can I open or crush the capsules to mix the powder in with food?

We strongly recommend giving the capsules whole because the outer capsule has an acid-resistant coating that protects the bacteria during their journey through the stomach acid.

Can I continue my dog’s other medications or supplements?

All medications and supplements can be continued, with one major exception: bacterial probiotics (e.g., Lactobacillus, Enterococcus). These should be discontinued when possible, as these non-native bacteria compete with the dog-specific bacteria in the Gut Restore Supplement. If your veterinarian has prescribed probiotics for your pet, check with them first before discontinuing probiotics. As an alternative, the yeast-based probiotic, S. boulardii, can be used because it supports dog-specific bacteria in the Gut Restore Supplement.
