There's a life-extending drug in development for dogs that could increase the number of years you have with them 🐶
At least that's the ruff idea from American biotech company Loyal, which was founded with the idea of creating a drug that could extend the life of a dog.
It created a drug named LOY-001 (no prizes for guessing how they came up with that) which it reckons could help larger dogs live longer.
According to Loyal's research, the bigger the dog the shorter the expected lifespan, with larger dogs living for between seven and 10 years on average while the smaller breeds could live for between 14 and 16 years.
