We discuss the FDA-approved longevity drug currently in development for large and giant breed dogs. The drug, by San Francisco-based company Loyal, aims to extend the lifespan of these beloved pets.

🔍 Though still in the testing phase, initial FDA feedback indicates confidence in the drug's potential effectiveness. However, it's crucial for pet owners to weigh the considerations and remain skeptical of the long-term impact on their dog's health.

👉 We emphasize the importance of exploring natural and ancestral methods to support longevity and overall health for dogs, including nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle practices. We talk about various recommendations, such as feeding raw meaty bones, liver tonic supplements, species-appropriate probiotics, omega-3 supplementation, and incorporating fresh, whole foods in a dog's diet.

Key takeaways:

1. Explore Natural Approaches: Consider integrating natural and ancestral methods for supporting your dog’s longevity and overall well-being.

2. Mindful Nutrition: Investigate the benefits of raw meaty bones, liver tonic supplements, omega-3, and species-appropriate probiotics for your dog’s diet.

3. FDA-Authorized Drug: Stay informed about the ongoing development of the FDA-approved longevity drug for large and giant breed dogs and remain cautious about its potential impact on your pet's health and well-being.

We dive into the mystery respiratory illness affecting dogs across the U.S. Here are some key takeaways from the episode:

🔍 Mystery Illness: A mysterious respiratory illness affecting dogs has been spreading across different states in the U.S. The causative organism is still unknown, and the illness is not very responsive to most antibiotics. However, an old-timer antibiotic, Chloramphenicol, has shown promise against the illness.

🍎 Food Therapy for Lung Health: We discussed the importance of food therapy for lung and respiratory problems in dogs. Foods such as duck, turkey, clams, cod, rabbit, eggs, and various fruits and vegetables were recommended to support canine lung health. We also stressed the significance of breaking down fruits and vegetables for dogs to aid absorption.

🌿 Immune System Support: The episode highlighted the significance of boosting the immune system in dogs, especially for senior dogs or those with compromised immune systems. Recommendations included incorporating whole foods, exercise, fresh air, and mushrooms into your dog's diet to help support their immune system.

Welcome back to another thrilling episode of Fangs & Fur! We continue our captivating conversation with our exceptional guests, Flo from Crude Carnivore and Lauren from Girls Gone Raw.

In part two, we dive deeper into the world of raw feeding for our four-legged friends. Lauren shares her fascinating experiences feeding her dogs fatty rabbit and grizzly turkey, while Flo reveals the joys and challenges of living on a farm and letting her dogs feast on fallen food.

We explore the importance of feeding fresh raw meat and keeping our furry companions lean, and our guests debunk the notion of perfection in raw feeding, stressing the significance of doing what's best for the dog in front of you. We also touch on the role of cooked food in a dog's diet and caution against feeding ice-cold food to our canine pals.

Plus, we uncover the fascinating preference for warm foods in dogs and cats and the benefits of consuming room-temperature meals. And of course, we can't forget to mention Lauren's trademark phrase, "feed the dog in front of you."
