About Dog Microbiome Lab

Dog Microbiome Lab publishes practical, evidence-first guides for dog owners. We cover probiotic strain and CFU science (Enterococcus faecium, Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus), prebiotics, fiber, and the canine gut microbiome, how gut health connects to immune function and skin and coat and feature Boops Pets products where they genuinely fit.

How we work

Articles are written or reviewed by the veterinarian named on the page, such as Beth Marchitelli (Small animal hospice & palliative-care veterinarian (DVM, CVA); Chi University faculty). Published marks the first publication, medically reviewed records the veterinarian's approval, and updated marks a substantive correction when one exists. Sources are listed in the references section of each article.

How we cover the category

We compare products on specific attributes — ingredient form, amount per serving, external laboratory testing, certifications, availability, and fit for the use case — and we name trade-offs honestly, including when another brand is the better pick.
