Summary created with AI assistance · Source: fr.de
- The research team followed about 370 children from the final third of pregnancy until the end of their first year, while parents recorded their health weekly and dust samples were collected at around two months.
- Children raised with a dog had fewer cases of fever and middle-ear infections during their first year and tended to need antibiotics less often.
- According to the researchers, certain bacteria and fungi brought indoors by dogs could explain up to a quarter of this association, with Collinsella linked to more healthy weeks and Pasteurella especially linked to shorter fever duration.
- Because it was a Finnish observational study based on parental reports rather than medical diagnoses, it does not prove that dogs alone caused the differences, and its applicability to other countries remains uncertain.
The findings reinforce our understanding that the microbial environment in early childhood plays an important role in the development of the child's immune system. It was believed that in the future it might be possible to alter the household gut microbiota in a health-promoting way. Our study shows that dog ownership already achieves this today.— Jenni Mäki, in a statement from the University of Eastern Finland
