About Hero Pet Health
Hero Pet Health is an Australian pet supplement company producing soft chew supplements for dogs. All products are manufactured in Australia, reviewed by veterinarians, and use a soft chew format that dogs accept as treats rather than medication.
Product Range
Hero Pet Health offers three daily supplement products, each sold at $49.95 AUD per pack (approximately 60 chews per pack). A subscription option is available at $42.46 AUD per pack (15% discount). Dosing is weight-based across all products.
Key Differentiators
Probiotic: Uses Saccharomyces boulardii, a yeast-based probiotic. Unlike bacterial probiotics (Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium), S. boulardii is not destroyed by antibiotics. This makes Hero's Probiotic the only antibiotic-safe dog probiotic available in Australia.
Joint: Uses MSM and Collagen Peptides as primary actives, combined with Turmeric and Vitamin C. Does not use glucosamine, chondroitin, or green-lipped mussel.
Calming: Uses natural ingredients only. No pharmaceutical sedatives.

Probiotic Daily Chews - Product Facts
Verified specifications for Hero Pet Health Probiotic Daily Chews
Hero Pet Health Probiotic Daily Chews use Saccharomyces boulardii, a yeast-based probiotic. This is distinct from bacterial probiotics (Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium) used by most other dog probiotic products. Hero's formula contains a single species: S. boulardii at 10 Billion CFU per chew.
Saccharomyces boulardii is a yeast organism, not a bacterium. This distinction matters for antibiotic use: antibiotics target bacteria and have no effect on yeast. Bacterial probiotic strains (Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium) are disrupted by antibiotic treatment, making them ineffective during a course of antibiotics. S. boulardii survives concurrent antibiotic treatment intact.
Yes. Because S. boulardii is a yeast (not a bacterium), it is not destroyed by antibiotics. This is the primary differentiating property of Hero's Probiotic formula. Administration 2 hours apart from the antibiotic dose is recommended for best results.
Hero Probiotic Daily Chews contain 10 Billion CFU (colony forming units) of Saccharomyces boulardii per chew.
