The Unsung Hero of Health: Your Gut (and Your Dog’s)

When I first started studying blue zones, I wasn’t thinking about gut bacteria. But over time, it became clear: longevity begins in the microbiome. The same is true for our dogs. 

A healthy gut means better digestion, stronger immunity, improved energy, and even better mood. The connection between the gut and the brain, in both humans and dogs, is what we call the gut-brain axis, and it’s a powerful influencer of quality of life. 

What Goes Into Your Dog’s Bowl Matters 

Get Joy takes gut health seriously. Not only are their meals perfect for picky eaters, they’re formulated with Belly Biotics™.  A proprietary blend of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, a triple threat for digestive health. 

Let’s break it down:

• Prebiotics feed good bacteria.
• Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria.
• Postbiotics are the result, beneficial compounds that reduce inflammation and support immunity. 

This gut-first approach mimics what I saw in Blue Zones, where fermented foods and fiber-rich diets keep people vibrant into their 90s and beyond. 

Healthier Gut. Healthier Life. 

The science is clear: when we feed the gut, we fuel the body. And when we nourish our dogs with whole food ingredients that promote microbial diversity, we’re setting them up not just to live longer, but to feel better every day.
