Poop pills are capsules containing freeze-dried fecal material from a healthy donor dog. The idea is simple but powerful — by introducing “good” gut bacteria into your dog’s digestive system, you can help restore a balanced microbiome and reduce inflammation in the gut.

This process, called fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), has been used successfully in humans for years to treat conditions like chronic Clostridium difficile infections. Now, veterinary science is adapting it for dogs.
