Product Overview
Why it matters
Your pet's gut affects everything — digestion, immunity, skin, even energy. Most chronic symptoms start with a bacterial imbalance that no diet change can fix on its own. The only way to know what's actually happening is to look inside.
Why Pawomics
We don't just list bacteria. Our proprietary PMI™ algorithm, developed by Canadian veterinary scientists, analyzes how bacterial communities interact — giving you insights most tests can't. Every sample is processed in our own Canadian lab. Never outsourced.

Questions & Answers
What is the Pawomics Gut Microbiome Test for dogs and cats?
The Pawomics Gut Microbiome Test is an at-home microbiome test kit for dogs and cats. It helps pet parents understand gut bacteria balance, digestive patterns, and microbiome signals that may be linked to stool quality, sensitive stomach, gas, bloating, skin concerns, and overall wellness.
Who is this gut health test best for?
This test is best for dogs or cats with recurring diarrhea, soft stool, vomiting, gas, bloating, food sensitivity concerns, itchy skin, or unexplained digestive discomfort. It is also useful for proactive pet parents who want data-driven insight before choosing food, probiotics, or a long-term wellness plan.
What will I learn from the microbiome report?
Your Pawomics report explains your pet’s gut microbiome composition, beneficial and concerning bacterial patterns, microbial balance, and personalized diet or supplement recommendations. The goal is to help you make clearer care decisions instead of guessing.
How does the at-home sample collection work?
Collect the sample at home using the kit instructions, activate your kit online, and mail the sample back using the included return shipping materials. The process is designed to be simple for everyday pet parents.
How long does it take to receive results?
Results are typically available within 3–4 weeks after the lab receives your pet’s sample. Timing may vary depending on shipping, sample condition, and lab processing volume.
Is return shipping included?
Yes. The kit includes free return shipping materials so you can send your pet’s sample back for analysis without arranging separate shipping.
How is this different from giving my pet a probiotic?
A probiotic is a daily support product. A microbiome test helps you understand what may be happening inside your pet’s gut before choosing a routine. Pawomics connects testing, personalized recommendations, and ongoing care so you can support your pet based on data, not trial and error.
Does this test diagnose disease or replace a veterinarian?
No. Pawomics test results are for informational and wellness-support purposes only. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. If your pet has severe, sudden, or ongoing symptoms, consult your veterinarian.
