Dog Gut Microbiome Report
For dogs needing deeper insight into microbial balance
The gut microbiome plays a key role in everything from digestion to emotional regulation. When the microbial ecosystem is out of balance, it can quietly drive chronic issues like itchy skin, gut sensitivity, poor coat quality or immune dysfunction. This test maps the key bacterial groups and compares them to healthy reference ranges to identify dysbiosis and guide targeted support.
Our Gut Microbiome Test uses shotgun metagenomic sequencing to provide a detailed profile of the bacteria within your dog’s gut and how they compare with healthy reference ranges. Every test also includes PCR screening for important gastrointestinal pathogens, providing insight into both microbial balance and potential infection. View a sample report here.
The gut microbiome is central to long-term health. Even without obvious digestive symptoms, microbial imbalance can contribute to chronic inflammation, immune reactivity, poor nutrient absorption or anxiety-like behaviour. This test offers a foundational look at your dog’s internal ecosystem to support early intervention or tailored nutrition.
Your dog’s report will include vet-reviewed recommendations for prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics based on their individual microbiome profile.
This screen is ideal for:
- Dogs with itchy skin, soft stools or suspected food sensitivities
- Dogs with chronic inflammation or poor response to diet changes
- Dogs that have received antibiotics, steroids or long-term medications
- Pet parents looking to personalise nutrition, probiotics or supplement routines
