EXCITING innovations are changing how we care for our four-legged friends and there are some amazing breakthroughs in dog health—ones that could help our fluffy friends live longer, happier lives.

One of the biggest stories is the arrival of anti-aging medications. An American company called Loyal is working on special treatments designed to slow the aging process in dogs, especially large breeds that tend to have shorter lifespans. These new chewables and injections could help dogs stay healthier into old age—and may be available as early as 2026.
