Microbiome testing for happier, healthier dogs with Dr Joe Inglis from Biome9


Listen Later

You've heard of microbiome tests for humans, and this week on the podcast, I have an interview with Dr. Joe Inglis from Biome9, who creates the same for dogs.

Your dog's gut health offers a window into their overall well-being.

Their gut microbiome can reveal valuable insights into their digestive health, nutrient absorption, and general health.

This test provides a 'gut health score' and personalised dietary recommendations to support your dog's long-term health.

The results can help identify issues with joints, skin, immunity, behaviour, and mental health that are linked to their gut microbiome.

Whether you're a dog lover or a pet professional, understanding gut health is key to giving pets the best chance at living a healthy, happy, and long life.

Joe and his colleagues at Biome9 hope to connect with pet professionals, and this episode is packed with valuable information to help you support the dogs you love and care for.
