Discover insights on extending canine lifespan in this TEDx talk by digital storyteller Rodney Habib.

Learn about stress resistance, emotional well-being, calorie restriction, insulin signaling, and the impact of carbohydrates on dog health. Gain knowledge from top scientists and experts like Dr. Richard Patton on topics such as the immune system and exercise. Uncover the "secret formula" for building a "forever dog" and enhancing your pet's longevity and well-being.
