NutriSource Pet Foods recently launched its first three [meal topper products for dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whats-barkings-shakers-food-toppers) with Come-pooch-a, a trio of formulations inspired by kombucha. The [savory bone broths for dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/premium-dog-beer) contain postbiotics to support hydration and digestion, and the versatile toppers can be added to a water dish or served over kibble or used to soften it.

Adam Martodam, marketing director for NutriSource, says “Sometimes, even a healthy dog goes through bouts of tummy upset. Moving day, a new family member or switching food can also cause digestive issues. Older dogs can be prone to bad bellies, too."
