Intestinal flora screen

The intestinal flora screen - meaningful intestinal check for dogs and cats + recommendations of our veterinary practitioners.

The intestines of our pets are very sensitive and can react to various environmental influences, medications or feeding errors with visible problems such as diarrhea or flatulence. In most cases, these complaints are due to a disturbed balance of the intestinal flora. Often pathogenic microorganisms have settled and displaced the physiological microbiome of the intestine. 

Through the intestinal flora screen, we can specifically identify imbalances in the intestinal flora and support the intestine - as the seat of the immune system - in a natural way.

In this video you will find out to what extent the gut flora screen could be useful for your pet:

When to perform a gut flora screen:

• for coat or skin problems
• For diarrhea or vomiting
• For flatulence
• in case of excessive eating of feces or grass
• in case of chronic or recurrent infections or fungal diseases
• for precaution

This is what you get from Vetscreen & Waldkraft: 

• a meaningful laboratory analysis on the following parameters:
   
  • 1. Gram-positive germ flora
  • 2. Gram-negative germ flora
  • 3. obligate pathogenic germ flora incl. enrichment on salmonellae
  • 4. Mycological examination
  • 5. Active gas formers
  • 6. pH value
     
• concrete recommendations of our animal healers referring to feeding problems, medications or environmental stresses
• a practical shopping aid for any necessary feed

 Procedure and implementation

1. You will receive everything you need for the test, i.e. the complete shipping material to the laboratory.
2. You fill the fecal tube to ¾ with feces of your quadruped (no collection fecal sample necessary). Please do not send diarrhea feces here, in this case please wait for a normal stool.
3. You fill in the form you receive.
4. You send the tube and the completed form to the laboratory in the enclosed envelope.
5. After approx. 2 - 3 weeks you will receive the laboratory result, the evaluation as well as recommendations and a shopping list, prepared by our animal healers. In addition, we offer you the opportunity to be advised once again personally by a therapist.

Note on postage costs:
Return shipping of samples within Germany is included.
For orders from abroad, please note that the additional postage costs may vary. This is due to the veterinary labeling of the laboratory test, by which your package is treated with special care during shipping.
