Four Leaf Rover’s Gut Guard
Lizzy’s Pick of the Month!
I’m so excited to share that we are now carrying Four Leaf Rover’s Gut Guard! I only wish I had known about this product when I first adopted my sensitive rescue dog, Precious.
When Precious came into my life, she was struggling with hot spots, chronic itchy skin, and leaky gut syndrome—a condition where the intestinal lining becomes overly permeable, allowing toxins and bacteria to pass into the bloodstream. Leaky gut can result from an imbalance of gut microbes, poor diet, stress, or even certain medications. In Precious’s case, it was likely due to the stress of shelter life combined with years of eating food that didn’t agree with her.
Unfortunately, it took us years of trial and error with different diets before we were finally able to identify and resolve her skin and gut issues. While I learned many valuable lessons along the way, I still wish someone had recommended Gut Guard to us back then.
To help heal Precious’s leaky gut, I relied on limited-ingredient diets to address her allergies and added fresh food toppers like bone broth and goat’s milk. But looking back, I truly believe that if I had included Gut Guard in her therapeutic regimen, she would have recovered much faster.
Gut Guard is a powerful yet gentle powdered supplement made with eight anti-inflammatory herbs, targeted soil-based probiotics, and L-glutamine—an amino acid known to support the integrity of the intestinal lining. Despite its potent formula, the serving size is surprisingly small, making it easy to sneak into the meals of even the pickiest eaters. For dogs weighing between 31 and 60 pounds, just one teaspoon a day is all that’s needed.
My two favorite ingredients in this gut-supporting blend are marshmallow root and slippery elm. I’ve used both herbs over the years whenever my pets got into something they shouldn’t have. I can confidently say they’ve saved my carpets from more than a few messy situations!
Gut Guard isn’t just for chronic issues—it’s also a great option for occasional digestive upset or as a supportive supplement following a round of antibiotics.
