Most gut supplements involve a syringe, a powder that gets left in the bowl, or a tablet hidden in cheese. This one is a chicken treat. You give it on a walk, your dog thinks they've been rewarded for doing nothing in particular, and the daily dose looks after itself.
It's 77.33% chicken, single protein and grain-free, which is what makes it worth eating from your dog's point of view. The working part sits behind that. There's a live probiotic, Enterococcus faecium, at 5.25 × 10¹⁰ CFU per kilo. There's prebiotic fibre from Jerusalem artichoke at 50% inulin and apple fibre at 60% fibre, which is what the probiotic feeds on. Then psyllium husk, AniForte's own moor mud powder, bentonite clay, rose hip, and a 5.3% herbal blend of fennel, lemon balm, chamomile, cumin and liquorice root.
AniForte say it supports digestion and faecal consistency, which in everyday terms is the one most owners care about: firmer, more predictable stools. Their explanation is that the probiotic settles into the existing gut flora, the psyllium husk swells and gets things moving properly, and the humic acids in the moor mud support the gut lining and help regulate stomach acid and the acid-base balance. Around 80% of a dog's immune cells sit in the intestine, which is why AniForte treat gut health as the starting point rather than an afterthought.
They're baked gently rather than hot, which AniForte do to keep the ingredients intact. Practically that leaves you with a soft snack that breaks by hand for a small dog, doesn't crumble in a coat pocket, and suits puppies and older dogs with worn teeth just as well as everything in between. No sugar, no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives, and no synthetic vitamins.
One snack per 5kg of bodyweight, daily. The 300g tub holds around 200 of them, and there's a 50g if you want to see how your dog takes to them first.

How many to give, and which size to buy
One snack per 5kg of bodyweight, once a day. Give them on a walk, as a reward, or during training. Make sure fresh water is always available.
| Your dog | Snacks per day | 50g tub lasts | 300g tub lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5kg | 1 | About 4 to 5 weeks | About 6 months |
| 10kg | 2 | About 16 days | About 14 weeks |
| 15kg | 3 | About 11 days | About 9 weeks |
| 20kg | 4 | About 8 days | About 7 weeks |
| 30kg | 6 | About 5 days | About 5 weeks |
| 40kg+ | 8 | About 4 days | About 3 to 4 weeks |
Based on approximately 200 snacks in a 300g tub, so roughly 33 in a 50g.
Which size? The 50g is a taster. For a small dog it'll last a month and change, but for anything over about 15kg it's a week or so and not much more. If your dog is bigger than that and you want to give it a proper run, start with the 300g.
Digestion Snack or Anti Grass and Poop Snack?
Both come in the same yellow tub, both carry the same probiotic at the same dose, and both use AniForte's moor mud. Here's what actually separates them.
| Digestion Snack | Anti Grass and Poop Snack | |
|---|---|---|
| Meat | 77.33% chicken, single protein | 82.6% beef tripe |
| Built around | Prebiotic fibre: Jerusalem artichoke (50% inulin), apple fibre, psyllium husk | Bitter herbs: milk thistle, dandelion, plus slippery elm |
| Herbal blend | 5.3% | 0.3% |
| Bentonite clay | 10,000 mg/kg | 20,000 mg/kg |
| Probiotic | E. faecium, 5.25 × 10¹⁰ CFU/kg | E. faecium, 5.25 × 10¹⁰ CFU/kg |
| AniForte's stated aim | Supports digestion and faecal consistency | Helps regulate stomach acid, helps prevent unusual eating behaviours |
In short: the Digestion Snack is the everyday one, built around feeding the gut flora, and it's the one to reach for if stool consistency is what you're thinking about. The Anti Grass and Poop Snack is aimed at dogs eating grass or faeces, leans on bitters and binding rather than prebiotic fibre, and carries double the clay. If your dog won't eat chicken, the tripe version is the way round it. If your dog won't eat tripe, this one is.
What to expect, and when
- First few days: you'll know quickly whether they'll eat them. At 77.33% chicken, most will.
- Two to four weeks: the usual window for a daily probiotic to settle in. Give it that long to do its work.
- Ongoing: it's a daily supplement rather than a course, so it keeps working while you keep giving it.
If you're switching food at the same time, it's worth starting the snacks a week beforehand so the gut has a head start.
