Why Cats & Dogs Love it

Soothes Sensitive Tummies

Soothes Sensitive Tummies

Slippery elm is naturally rich in mucilage, a soluble fibre that forms a soft, gel-like consistency when mixed with liquid. This makes it particularly suited to gentle digestive support when your pet’s stomach needs a little extra care.

Coats & Comforts the Digestive Tract

Coats & Comforts the Digestive Tract

When hydrated, slippery elm’s natural mucilage creates its characteristic slippery texture. This provides a gentle coating action within the digestive tract and helps support everyday digestive comfort.

Naturally Rich in Soluble Fibre

Naturally Rich in Soluble Fibre

Slippery Elm Bark provides a natural source of soluble fibre from one simple plant ingredient, helping support normal digestive function without unnecessary fillers or additives.

Why Slippery Elm Bark?

The clever plant fibre that turns naturally soothing when mixed with water.

The clever plant fibre that turns naturally soothing when mixed with water.

Botanical name: Ulmus rubra

Slippery Elm Bark is naturally rich in mucilage — a type of plant fibre that absorbs water and develops a smooth, gel-like texture when hydrated. It's this unusual characteristic that has made slippery elm such a popular ingredient for gentle digestive support.
That natural fibre also makes it a simple way to complement your pet's diet and support normal digestive function and healthy bowel movements. Fibre plays an important role in digestive health, including stool quality and supporting the gut environment.
And what's inside our pouch? Finely ground Slippery Elm Bark — nothing unnecessary added.

How It Works

Add it dry and let your dog do the rest.

Simply sprinkle the recommended amount of Slippery Elm Bark Powder directly over your dog's wet food or kibble — there's no need to mix it with water first.

The clever part happens once your dog starts eating. Slippery elm is naturally rich in mucilage, a type of soluble fibre that develops its characteristic gel-like consistency when it comes into contact with moisture.

As the powder mixes with saliva and moisture during eating, the mucilage begins to hydrate, creating the soothing consistency slippery elm is known for. Once swallowed, this hydrated fibre can help coat and soothe the digestive tract.

Our Customers Say It Best

Real reviews from real customers.

Got questions? We have the answers.

Honest answers for a healthier life.

Is Slippery Elm good for dogs with diarrhoea or loose stools?

Slippery Elm Bark is naturally rich in mucilage, a soluble fibre that becomes gel-like when exposed to moisture. This can help soothe the digestive tract and support normal stool consistency, making slippery elm a popular choice for dogs experiencing occasional loose stools or digestive upset. Persistent, severe or recurring diarrhoea should always be discussed with your vet.

Can Slippery Elm help dogs with constipation?

Slippery elm contains soluble fibre and forms a moisture-rich gel as it hydrates, which can support normal digestive function and bowel movements. Always make sure your dog has access to plenty of fresh drinking water, particularly when adding fibre to their diet.

How does Slippery Elm soothe a dog's stomach?

The inner bark of the slippery elm tree naturally contains mucilage. When this comes into contact with moisture it develops a soft, gel-like consistency that can coat and soothe mucous membranes within the digestive tract. That's what gives slippery elm its distinctive soothing properties.

Can Slippery Elm help dogs with a sensitive stomach?

Slippery elm is commonly used as nutritional support for dogs experiencing occasional digestive upset because of its mucilage-rich fibre. However, recurring vomiting, diarrhoea, discomfort or changes in appetite shouldn't simply be treated as a sensitive stomach — speak to your vet so the underlying cause can be investigated.

Can Slippery Elm help with acid reflux in dogs?

Slippery elm is sometimes used to soothe the upper digestive tract because its hydrated mucilage can form a coating over mucous membranes. However, suspected acid reflux or repeated regurgitation in dogs should be assessed by a vet rather than self-diagnosed.

How quickly does Slippery Elm work for dogs?

Slippery elm doesn't need weeks to build up in the same way as some nutritional supplements. Its mucilage begins hydrating when exposed to moisture, so its physical soothing action can begin relatively quickly. How soon you notice a difference will depend on your dog and why you're using it; digestive-support products are often reported to show benefits within a few days.

Can I give my dog Slippery Elm every day?

Slippery elm can be incorporated into a dog's diet when fed according to the recommended amount. If your dog needs ongoing digestive support or has persistent digestive symptoms, we'd recommend discussing this with your vet rather than relying on supplementation alone.

Can Slippery Elm be given with medication?

Slippery elm's mucilage may affect the absorption of oral medicines if they're given at the same time. If your dog takes medication, leave an appropriate gap between the medication and Slippery Elm and check with your vet for advice specific to your dog's treatment.

How do I give Slippery Elm Bark Powder to my dog?

Simply follow the feeding guide and sprinkle the recommended amount over your dog's usual food. Slippery elm's mucilage hydrates when it comes into contact with moisture, so it works particularly naturally alongside wet or moisture-rich food. Always ensure fresh drinking water is available.

“Because your best friend deserves the very best.”

Logan's began with one very special dog — Oscar. Wanting the very best for him inspired us to look more closely at what went into the products we gave our pets, and ultimately led us to create our own.

That same philosophy remains at the heart of Logan's today: carefully selected, straightforward ingredients and supplements we'd be happy to give to our own pets. Oscar's paw remains part of our logo as a reminder of where it all began.
