Your Dog Needs Your Help. | 38 - The Dog Aging Project

Love this project. Heard about it first during an interview you gave to Richard on his Modern Healthspan KZbin channel.

Just added my boy yesterday, one more segment to complete. Will definitely share - have a fairly large Boxer group ( worldwide) of FB friends and many if not most, already do more than ‘usual’ health testing to ensure the healthiest litters bred, best conformation, and stable temperaments. These include but are not limited to - holter monitoring, ECHo’s, hip and spine radiographs and grading, thyroid testing for autoimmune thyroiditis, genetic degenerative myelopathy testing, genetic ARVC testing ( unfortunately, only one gene though) general bloodwork and brucellosis. This is such a wonderful program and it is my hope many will look seriously at it and help fund. Thank you for your initiatives and passion concerning dog aging - losing a beloved pet is devastating, we are still grieving the loss of one of our Boxers.

Sorry to hear about your boxer! Losing a dog is indeed devastating, they are part of the family. So glad you enrolled your dog! - Tara

thx!

Can we somehow get Andrew Huberman's fund to pitch in for this? They primarily fund human research, however, this is contextually equivalent in terms of importance.

Why I always hesitate to donate. I want to remain anonymous . Also I do not trust any organization that could profit from selling my info or pester me for more money. Kind of sad but I am telling it like it is. Can you assure me that my information will not be given out, sold, reused or stolen if I donate ?

[@optispan]

That's completely understandable. Optispan has absolutely no intention of using your info for financial gain--Optispan and the Dog Aging Project are two completely separate entities that share a leader. We hope you will donate! - Tara
