www.barkandwhiskers.com/2023-12-17-fermented-foods-for-petsStory at-a-glance Fermented vegetables are a staple in virtually every type of native diet worldwide — and pets can enjoy them too Fermentation mimics the digestion of plant foods that occurs prey animals’ GI tracts, making them easier to digest Lactic acid bacteria produced during the fermentation process have health-promoting properties, including anticancer effects Fermented vegetables are naturally rich in beneficial bacteria, or probiotics, to nourish gut and immune system health Some pets will gladly lap up a dollop of fermented veggies while others want no part of them; start your pet out gradually with half a teaspoon and slowly increase the amount to 1 to 3 teaspoons a day for every 20 pounds of body weight My notes: Have you used any fermented foods for your pet? I've used organic, unsweetened yogurt before. Just a small amount until you know how your pet would react.

Never tried fermented foods with our pets. Didn't realize it'd be beneficial.
