Dog Aging Project

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. vimeo.com/dogagingprojec…

Our study shows that dogs and humans share measurable biomarkers of mortality, revealing significant parallels in aging biology. These results reinforce the role of companion animals as models for understanding human longevity. ➡️Read the full paper: academic.oup.com/biomedgerontol…

The #DogAgingProject is an innovative initiative that brings together a community of dogs, owners, veterinarians, researchers, & volunteers to carry out the most ambitious canine health study in the world. 🐾 Learn more & share your dog's unique story: dogagingproject.org

In this study, the Dog Aging Project identified metabolites linked to a subset of dogs and human mortality, supporting dogs as a model for studying human aging. doi.org/10.1093/gerona… @UWMedicine @uwmnewsroom @‌DrGustavoDuque  @‌DogAgingProject @oxfordjournals @OUPAcademic

"The small molecules that predict dog mortality also forecast human lifespan, strengthening dogs as aging models." ➡️ Check out this article from #UWMedicine to learn about our recent findings: newsroom.uw.edu/news-releases/… #DogAgingProject #AgingResearch #LongevityScience

The same molecules that predict mortality in dogs do so in humans, found @DogAgingProject Ben Harrison. @UWMedicine newsroom.uw.edu/news-releases/…

"Kippi has been by my side through every high and low, asking for nothing but a scratch behind the ears and a place by my feet.” ~Kinta Kippi has been part of the @DogAgingProject for nearly a decade, helping our researchers better understand canine aging. Thank you, Kippi! ❤️

We're proud of our team! Dr. Brynn Franks is featured on The Fur Real Podcast 🎙️, discussing the biology of aging in dogs, longevity, and how research from the #DogAgingProject could transform veterinary medicine in the future. 🎧Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/5EA9Nt…

Exciting news from the TRIAD cohort! 🎉We’re celebrating another graduate from our clinical trial study! 🐶🎓 Want to help dogs live longer, healthier lives? 🐾 Discover if your doggo is eligible for TRIAD: dogagingproject.org/triad #TRIAD #DogGrad #Dogs

"Every dog owner has seen the aging process happen in the many ways their dog changes as they grow older. This study gives us a window into the changes that are impossible to see, those inside the bloodstream." 🐾Read our blog to learn more: dogagingproject.org/scientific-res… #doghealth
