To the PG, 16\u00a0g\/day of psyllium husk was administered for 30 days. The FMTG received faecal microbiome transplantation (FMT) once via enema. A daily log of faecal characteristics was kept, and the dogs' canine inflammatory bowel disease index (CIBDAI) and body condition scores (BCS) were determined. A Wilcoxon\u2013Mann\u2013Whitney test was used to compare group results. In addition, the Kaplan\u2013Meier test was used to evaluate the occurrence rate of 1 day or more of diarrhoea and 2 days or more of diarrhoea by day 30.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The sample had a mean age of 3.9\u00a0\u00b1\u00a02.1 years and a bodyweight of 25.3\u00a0\u00b1\u00a06.8\u00a0kg. The FMTG showed a more rapid onset of CIBDAI improvement but no difference in other measures. At 30 days, the FMTG showed a greater improvement in bodyweight and BCS, but no differences were observed in faecal scores, defaecation frequency and time of appearance of episodes of diarrhoea. Time played a significant positive role in the results observed across both groups (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.05).\n
