From: A diet change from dry food to beef induces reversible changes on the faecal microbiota in healthy, adult client-owned dogs

Mean relative abundances of the 15 most common operational taxonomic units (OTUs) at genus level. Data are from faecal samples taken following different diet periods from 11 healthy, client-owned dogs during the seven-week dietary intervention study. The diet periods were as follows: CD1 for week 1 and 2, during which all dogs were acclimated to commercial dry food (CD; Felleskjøpet’s Labb adult), followed by incremental substitution of the CD diet with minced beef − LMB, low minced beef for week 3, MMB, moderate minced beef for week 4, and HMB, high minced beef for week 5 – and finally, CD2 for week 6 and 7, during which the dogs were reintroduced to the CD diet
