Dog gut microbiome tests, what they measure and how to interpret them

If you’ve already done a microbiome test, great, upload it to Blueprint and keep it alongside the rest of your dog’s health record. When results sit next to real-world symptoms and history, you and your vet can interpret them with far more confidence.

One-off results can be interesting, but long-term patterns are what drive better health decisions. Blueprint is designed to help you build a continuous record of your dog’s health, bringing together gut data, symptoms, diet, behaviour, and vet history in one place.

Don’t wait for the limp. Arthritis speaks quietly at first. By tracking behavioural changes and mobility trends over time, you can catch the silent signs early, protect quality of life, and keep more options open for the years ahead.

Dog breath smells like fish: decoding the odour

A fishy odour is a specific message from your dog’s biology. Interpreting that message means looking at the smell alongside behaviour and other changes over time. Elita Blueprint helps you hold that context in one place, so patterns are easier to spot and conversations with your vet are grounded in evidence rather than guesswork.

Signs of dehydration in dogs: protecting the kidneys

Kidney tissue has limited capacity to recover once damaged, so prevention and early support matter.

By holding hydration-related observations alongside clinical kidney markers over time, Elita Blueprint helps identify emerging renal stress early, when there’s still room to intervene thoughtfully.

Puppy sleep schedule: understanding the biological need for rest

Sleep is when the work of growing happens. Use Elita Blueprint to monitor your puppy’s rest patterns, connect sleep to behaviour, and ensure they are getting the recovery time they need to thrive. Just log any changes in the calendar and we'll do the rest while you ensure they rest.

Dog arthritis tablets, what you should know

Medication can help manage arthritis, but long term joint health often benefits from a broader view.

Dog microbiome tests in Australia, how they work and how to read the results

Gut reports can look definitive, but the real value is in interpretation.

Long term gut health for dogs, building resilience over time

Healthy ageing is about resilience, how well your dog adapts and recovers over time.

Small inputs add up, Blueprint helps you see which ones actually help your dog.

Dog diarrhoea and gut health, what it can signal and when to look deeper

Diarrhoea becomes much easier to interpret when you can see what changed around it.

That context is what helps you make smarter next steps, and get far more out of your next vet visit.

Functional foods can have powerful effects on your dog's biology. Use Elita Blueprint to track diet changes, monitor gut health, and ensure your nutrition plan is delivering the results you want.

Dog probiotics vs microbiome tests, what’s different and when each helps

Probiotics can be helpful, but only when they’re actually working for your dog. Blueprint makes it easy to track how digestion, stool quality, skin, energy, and behaviour respond after introducing a probiotic, so you’re not relying on guesswork. This kind of clear feedback helps you decide whether to continue, adjust, or stop, and supports a calmer, evidence-based approach to gut support.

Why gut health matters for dogs and how it connects to whole body health

Gut resilience supports the whole dog, immunity, inflammation, metabolism, skin, behaviour, and the gut brain axis. Blueprint helps you build a longitudinal health picture so you can support gut health as part of a bigger preventative strategy, not a one-off project. The result is clearer decisions, earlier action, and more good years together.

Puppyhood is chaos, but their health data shouldn't be. Elita Blueprint organises vaccinations, growth tracking, and medical records in one secure vault, giving your new best friend the best start to life.

Dog gut test accuracy, what affects reliability and interpretation

A result is only as useful as the story around it.

That added context makes it easier to separate short-term disruption from a true pattern worth acting on.

Probiotics for dogs: navigating the bacterial strains

Gut health isn’t one-size-fits-all.

Until then, tracking inputs and outcomes is the most reliable way to navigate probiotics thoughtfully, using data rather than hope to guide decisions.

Home remedies for dog skin allergies and itching

Preventative gut care is easiest when it’s built into routine. Blueprint helps you stay on top of the small things that compound, diet variety, fibre, supplements, flare ups, and changes in stools, skin, energy, or behaviour. If you’ve already run any tests, upload them into your Blueprint docs so they sit inside your dog’s long term health record, not lost in a folder.
