The Dog Aging Project reposted this
Grateful for Morris Animal Foundation's support of research that improves the lives of animals. Thanks to funding from the foundation and collaboration with The Dog Aging Project, Dr. Audrey Ruple and I (along with an awesome support team at Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine) will be investigating how changes in companionship impact our dogs' health as they age. 🐶 💜
As dogs live longer, they encounter unique health challenges that can affect their quality of life and their families. To address these issues, Morris Animal Foundation is funding eight innovative studies focused on senior dog health, including research on osteoarthritis, cognitive decline, obesity, and more. These studies, slated to begin this year, will provide valuable insights and tools for veterinarians, researchers and pet owners, paving the way for healthier, happier lives for our aging canine companions. This work is made possible by the generous support of our donors. Learn more about these groundbreaking projects and how you can help advance science to save animals: https://lnkd.in/gvG3bbTS

Congrats, we are happy to support!
