Our Story

Science for Pets began with a simple idea: what if the latest understanding of the gut microbiome could be made practical, safe, and easy for every dog owner to use? 

As a practising veterinary surgeon for over 20 years, Jim Willshire MRCVS saw first-hand how often a dog’s diet and digestion play a role in their overall wellbeing. Inspired by his own dogs — Reuben, a kibble-fed red Labrador, and Chester, a raw-fed Clumber Spaniel — Jim set out to create supplements that could be used confidently alongside everyday feeding. 

What Makes Us Different

  • Vet-developed: created by a veterinary surgeon with years of clinical experience. 
  • Inspired by real pets: our own dogs shaped how GutKind was designed. 
  • Built on science: our formulations use research into pre-, pro- and post-biotics and their role in gut balance.

Looking to the Science

In human medicine, there’s an ever-growing body of research showing how important a balanced gut microbiome is for overall health. While the same evidence base doesn’t yet exist in veterinary medicine, we believe the principles are worth exploring for dogs too. That’s why our products are designed to support gut balance in ways that mirror what’s being learned in human health — always clearly labelled, always safe for everyday use.
