The age group of these 18 men ranged from 18 to 76, and the dogs were chosen were of different breeds. All of the 18 men had high loads of bacteria in their beards, and only 23 of the 30 dogs had high levels of bacteria. Seven dogs had only moderate levels of the same.

However, the credibility of this research can be questioned on various grounds. To begin with, it didn’t have as many men as dogs for conducting the study.
