Dog Gut Microbiome Test
Your dog's gut has a story. Let's read it.
One at-home swab turns into a full genomic report on your dog's digestion, mood, immunity and more. It runs on the same ambient-shipping, lab-grade sequencing technology Azooka already supplies to India's top diagnostic labs.

A real Azooka report
Meet Buddy. This is his gut, decoded.
Buddy's a 4-year-old Golden Retriever. One at-home sample was enough to score his gut Optimal, flag the exact probiotic strains he was short on, clear him across a screen of 70+ pathogens and parasites, and work out his gut age and human-year equivalent. Your dog's sample can do the same. All it takes is a kit at your door.

A lot more than one score
It runs on the same NGS sequencing pipeline Azooka's diagnostic lab network uses every day, just pointed at your dog's gut instead of a human patient's.
Overall Health Score
One easy-to-read score, benchmarked against healthy dogs of similar breed and age.
Microbial Diversity
How varied your dog's gut bacteria are, and how their kingdom balance compares to the healthy range.
Probiotic Checklist
Which of the 30 beneficial bacteria strains, like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, are present or missing.
Pathogen Screening
70+ bacterial, fungal, viral and parasitic pathogens screened, each flagged Low, Moderate or High.
Antimicrobial Resistance
80+ antibiotic-susceptibility markers, so you and your vet know exactly which antibiotics will actually work.
Digestive Power
How efficiently your dog's gut breaks down carbs, fats and protein, and how well it absorbs what's left.
Whole-Body Health Markers
Mobility, coat condition, oral odour, inflammation, plus metabolic and cardiovascular signals.
Mood & Neurotransmitters
Gut-produced serotonin, dopamine, GABA and butyrate levels linked to mood and behaviour.
Temperament Traits
Microbial signatures linked to aggression, anxiety and fear-based behaviours.
Diet Recommendations
A personalised list of beneficial foods and probiotic strains for your dog's exact profile.
Fun Health Tags
Your dog's gut age and human-year equivalent, calculated straight from the microbiome data.

What pet parents are finding out
"We found out our rescue pup had almost no beneficial bacteria left. Three months of the recommended diet later, her coat and energy are unrecognisable."
"No fasting, no vet trip, no dry ice. I did the whole swab at my kitchen counter in under two minutes, and the report itself was actually fun to read."
"Our vet was impressed with how detailed the pathogen and antibiotic-resistance panel was. It changed how we treated her."
These are illustrative quotes, not verified customer reviews yet.
"We have moved our entire sample collection tubes to Azooka's mWRAPR. It has improved yields from samples and is stable at higher temperatures, which is critical in GCC and APAC markets."
Questions, answered
Questions pet parents actually ask
Is this a diagnostic test?
No. It's a research and informational-use gut microbiome analysis, not a diagnostic test. Always read the results together with your veterinarian.
How is the sample collected?
With a simple at-home stool or saliva swab, using Azooka's collection tube. No fasting, no blood draw, no trip to the vet.
Do I need dry ice or a fridge to send it back?
No. Azooka's tubes stay stable at ambient temperature for up to 90 days, so the sample can just go in a normal envelope in the mail.
How long until I get results?
Most reports land in your inbox within 2–3 weeks of the lab receiving your dog's sample.
Does breed, age or size matter?
Not really. The test works for any breed, age or size of dog. Results are benchmarked against a healthy canine reference range so the comparison stays fair.
Can I share the report with my vet?
Yes. Every report comes as a clean, printable PDF that's meant to be read together with a vet, not instead of one.
