They can be found in many different environments: soil, ocean, fresh water, and the intestines and skin of animals. Bacteroidetes are found in the guts of mice, pigs, cattle, domesticated and wild birds, and even termites and sea urchins.<\/p><p>Newborn pups do not have much Bacteroidetes\u00a0in their gut. However, as the pups suck their mother&#8217;s milk, this gate reproduces rapidly and becomes one of the main groups in their gut when they are three weeks old.<\/p><p>\u200d<\/p><ul role=\"list\"><li>In the gut, Bacteroidetes\u00a0specialize in breaking down large organic molecules such as proteins and carbohydrates.<\/li><li>Bacteroidetesare important for your dog&#8217;s health, and studies have shown that dogs with chronic intestinal disease have fewer Bacteroidetes\u00a0in their guts than healthy dogs.<\/li><\/ul><p>\u200d<\/p><p>A diet rich in fiber helps important members of the phylum Bacteroidetes\u00a0grow.
