It’s a bit embarrassing to share, but about two weeks ago, Louie swallowed a duck bone and had to undergo emergency abdominal surgery. Two days later, he came home weak and tired, and his stools were watery at first—just slipping out. Thankfully, that passed within a few hours, but he began showing signs of ongoing diarrhea.
We returned to the vet, who recommended Pro-Kolin. Luckily, I already had it at home. Here's my honest experience with it and why I now always keep it on hand.
Why I Always Keep Pro-Kolin Over Any “Good Food” for Dog Diarrhea
I first discovered Pro-Kolin when Louie was just over 2 months old. I had switched his food from Royal Canin to Stella & Chewy’s puppy dinner patties—and that triggered diarrhea.
At first, the vet prescribed general probiotics, but they didn’t help even after a week. Then we tried Pro-Kolin. Within just two days, his poop firmed up dramatically. Since then, it’s a must-have in our doggy medicine fridge.
-
Day 1: Louie sniffed it warily but then licked it up—it’s a liver-flavored paste.
-
Day 2: I saw a dramatic improvement after the second dose.
Now, when I notice loose stools or suspect inflammation, I wait and observe twice, then give 2ml of Pro-Kolin.
What Makes Pro-Kolin More Effective Than Just “Good Food”?
Pro-Kolin isn’t a drug—it’s a nutritional supplement designed for canine and feline gut health.
Key ingredients:
-
Probiotics & Prebiotics – Improve and sustain healthy gut flora
-
Kaolin & Pectin – Help soothe inflamed intestinal walls and reduce diarrhea symptoms
This combination is why it works faster than dietary changes or gentle foods alone.
The product looks like a syringe but isn’t meant for direct oral injection. For dogs under 5kg, the guideline is 2ml twice daily. Adjust the dial to the correct dose, then press.
A Closer Look at Pro-Kolin
You’ll find the dosage dial clearly marked—it’s easy to read. Start at “0” on first use and work your way forward.
Louie is supposed to take 2ml, but after his surgery, the vet recommended 3ml. The photos show a 2ml portion—because that was our last dose. (Louie’s doing fine now!)
Louie Eats Pro-Kolin Like a Treat
At first, he expected a real treat and looked disappointed—but he still ate it cleanly.
And yes, like a proper good boy, he licked the bowl!
Final Thoughts
I always pause Louie’s regular probiotics when giving Pro-Kolin.
Do you have a go-to remedy when your dog has diarrhea or suspected gastro issues? Share it in the comments if you’ve found something that works as well as—or even better than—Pro-Kolin.
For us, Pro-Kolin beats any “good food” when it comes to fast relief and reliable results.
