Dietary Features Are Associated with Differences in the Urinary Microbiome in Clinically Healthy Adult Dogs [PDF]
Veterinary SciencesNutrition plays an important role in shaping the gut microbiome composition, although the impact of diet on the urinary microbiome (i.e., urobiome) remains unknown. The aim of this pilot study was to discover how nutritional features affect the diversity

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 6, Page 2219-2229, November/December 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Urine is routinely evaluated in dogs to assess health. Reference ranges for many urine properties are well established, but the scope of variation in these properties over time within healthy dogs is not well characterized. Objectives Longitudinally characterize urine properties in healthy dogs over 3 months.
