Human-like associations between gut microbiome composition and inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity in dogs
This is the first study that found negative associations between inattention and the relative abundance of Prevotellaceae in dogs, which parallels findings in human studies. Our current correlational results in family dogs represent only the first step in gaining more insight into the interplay of gut microbiome and neurodevelopmental processes in non-human animals.
