The natural state of aging starts at the level of the cell.
The Science Behind Aging
Two important changes occur as cells age. Cells which get old stop dividing but continue to secrete factors which can create inflammation, cause chronic diseases, and accelerate aging. Removal of these old cells allows the body to slow the process of aging.
Second, as a dog—or person, for that matter—ages, their NAD levels decline, which means their cells start to lose the ability to produce energy and function as they should. That leads to diseases and the breakdown of different systemic functions – mental as well as physical. NAD (nicotinic adenine dinucleotide) is what fuels energy in cells throughout an animal’s body.
Our proprietary combination product has shown unique results in targeting these changes.
Understanding Aging in Dogs
Dogs show changes in four key areas:
-
Activity
Pace aimlessly; decreased with pain due to osteoarthritis -
Sleep Quality
Restlessness at night, sleeping during the day -
Mental Alertness
Inappropriate barking or howling, confusion, less interaction with human friends -
Quality of Life
Decreased ability to cope with mild social challenges, changes in play behavior

Natural State of Aging
The natural state of aging starts at the level of the cell. Cells which get old stop dividing but continue to secrete factors which can precipitate inflammation, cause chronic diseases and accelerate aging. Removal of these old cells allows the body to slow the process of aging.
It Takes a Village ...
We have taken basic science out of the laboratory and into the veterinary hospital for testing to prove the effects and safety in pet dogs. We’ve proven that our oral formulation is absorbed, present in the bloodstream and available to cells.
We are now studying the combined effects of a unique, two-part system on the mental and physical qualities in older dogs over time using wearable technology to collect data and assess changes.
Our pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing process assures quality that is well above industry standard and matches the rigor of the science behind our product.
We continue to build out our network of scientists, veterinarians and people dedicated to their older pets to develop products to extend the health of pets and the people who love them.
We work at the intersection of science and technology, developing Innovative Technological Products for Pets.
Just one of our valued partnerships is with Dinbeat. Developing a wearable vest to monitor vital signs and vigour of dogs over time. The data their tool can provide is opening our eyes to deeper insights and larger opportunities.
Dinbeat is based in Spain and led by Talia Bonmati and her wonderfully energetic and well supported team. They company has created the first multi-parameter, wireless harness called DinbeatPRO to track pet’s performance and biology to a medical standard.
Introducing Leap Years™
More life in your dog, more dog in your life!
It all hinges on something called NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). NAD+ is what fuels energy in cells throughout an animal’s body. As a dog ages, their NAD+ levels decline, which mean their cells start to lose the ability to produce energy and function as they should. That leads to diseases and the breakdown of different functions – mental as well as physical.

Why Leap Years™
Animals cell start to lose NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). the coenzyme that helps the cells produce energy and function as they should. The results in disease and the breakdown of different bodily functions. Leap Years™ combats this.
