Product information from the Wysong site:

There is a universe of life within the digestive tract. Microorganisms populate the intestines and colon in numbers 10 times greater than the total number of cells in the body itself - over 10 billion per gram of stool. One half the dry weight of stools is microorganisms. This population of organisms is being increasingly found to have profound effects on health. There is a delicate balance, however, between those organisms which contribute to health in assisting digestion, synthesizing nutrients, and inhibiting cancer-causing biochemicals, for example - and those which can cause disease. Beneficial (probiotic) organisms in the diet can help rebalance the digestive tract.

Wysong Pet Inoculant is an orally dosed concentration of probiotic cultures and immunoglobulins. The probiotic cultures have been selected for their specific health enhancing activity in pets as well as for their competitive inhibition of pathogenic E. coli bacteria. Each cc contains 200 million CFU of four bacterial species. Additionally, Pet Inoculant contains fractions from cow first milk which is rich in colostrum antibodies. Pet Inoculant is designed to be used at birth, weaning, in conjunction with antibiotic therapy, and during any stressful condition. The no mess pump dispenser delivers a 1cc dose per squeeze.

INGREDIENTS:

Cold Pressed High Oleic Safflower Oil, Cold Pressed Flax Seed Oil, Dried Whey Product, Dried Lactobacillus Lactis Fermenation Product, Dried Lactobacillus acidpohilus Fermentation Product, Dried Bifidobacterium bifidum Fermenation Product, Dried Streptococcus faecium Fermentation Product, Wysong Oxherphol (A Natural Antioxidant Consisting of Vitamin E Tocopherois and Botanical Extracts of Cloves, Sage and Rosemany)

I have found a remarkable probiotic product for newborns called PET INOCULANT by Dr. Wysong, and I cannot impress upon you enough, the importance of using this on your newborn puppies to establish intestinal flora and fight E. coli bacteria and the potential for fading puppies. Pet Inoculant is a liquid probiotic and enzyme in a pump container. The shelf life is short so keep it cool and order about 14 days before your bitch is due to whelp. Instructions come with this product. No breeder should be without this product.

Once the pups are weaned you can switch to 4 in 1 Daily Probiotics or BakPak Plus - 877-816-6500.

Approximate amounts to feed pregnant bitches (giant breeds):

63 day gestation = 9 weeks

Use Eagle Natural Pack for the first 4 weeks to make sure she is pregnant. You do not want her to get fat while pregnant. Then switch up to: Eagle Kennel Pack 25/15 for the rest of the pregnancy AND for 3 months after so she repairs. Then you can move her back to the Eagle Natural or Eagle Holistic.

Week 1 - 4 Feed the normal amount in cups that you are currently feeding.

week 5 - add 1 cup AM and 1 cup PM = total 2 more cups a day
week 6 - add 2 cups AM and 2 cups PM = total 4 more cups per day
week 7 - add 3 cups AM and 3 cups PM = total 6 more cups per day.
week 8 add 4cups AM and 4 cups PM = total 8 more cups per day.

This is generally sufficient for the last two weeks of the pregnancy and nursing. If she is still ravenous, or has a big litter it is best to switch up to the Eagle Puppy 28% protein and 18% fat.

It is important to increase their friendly bacteria - Probiotic (BakPakPlus) intake during pregnancy and lactation or you can use First Choice Naturals 4 in 1 Probiotics or Fastrack as well.

Also the use of Nzymes - antioxidant enzymes, are critical to any diet regardless of brand of food you feed. This product replaces the enzymes lost in the processing of commercial foods and needs to be replenished throughout the life of the dog. The stress of pregnancy requires an additional dose.
