Seattle, WA — Want your four-legged canine friend to live a few years longer? Researchers are working to make that happen with a pill.
The Dog Aging Project out of the University of Washington is on a mission to find the inner workings of the aging process in dogs and learn how to slow it down. The initiative combines the efforts of dog owners, veterinarians and researchers to tackle one of dog owners’ greatest grievances — the short life span of man’s best friend, according to its website.
The Dog Aging Project is recruiting dogs to participate in the largest #canine health study ever conducted. This is an opportunity to be part of a research project that can dramatically extend what we know about #health and #aging in our dogs.https://t.co/zRgQjAWQth
