Buddy probiotic chew review: 120 chews, the value tub

The Buddy probiotic chew in the 120-chew (320g) tub is the same well-rated formula as the small pack, in the size that actually makes financial sense. It holds a 4.9 rating across thousands of owner ratings.

What does it do?

A daily soft chew for gut health, dosed by your dog’s weight. Nothing exotic, and that’s rather the point: it does one job, most dogs eat it willingly, and an enormous number of Filipino owners have rated it well.

In a category where almost nothing publishes strain names or CFU counts, the volume and consistency of owner feedback is the most useful evidence available. Buddy has more of it than nearly anything else here.

The value case

This is the strongest per-chew price in the batch. You get roughly four times the chews of the 32-count pack for about double the money, which is the usual reward for buying the bigger size, but the gap here is wider than most.

Set against the imported alternatives, the contrast is stark: this tub costs a fraction of a 90-chew Zesty Paws tub while carrying far more owner ratings. What you give up is the published ingredient panel, which is a real trade rather than a trivial one, but for most households it’s the right side of it.

One practical note: soft chews suffer in humidity. Keep the tub sealed and out of direct heat so they don’t dry out or go tacky.

Is it worth it?

Around ₱440 as of August 3, 2026 for 120 chews. Check the latest price on Shopee.

For a small dog that’s roughly four months of daily supplementation, which is a genuinely low running cost. For a large dog it’s about two months, still comfortably the best value here.

Who should buy it

Buy this if your dog already takes chews and you want gut support as an ongoing habit at the lowest sensible cost. If this is your first supplement, start with the 32-count pack to check acceptance first. If your dog picks chews out of the bowl, buy a powder instead. Cat owners need a cat-specific product.
