Ask the internet what to feed your dog and you'll get a thousand confident answers, half of them contradicting the other half. Dr Laura Gaylord has spent more than 20 years helping pet owners and veterinary teams cut through that exact noise.

In this episode, Dr Mia Cobb speaks with Dr Gaylord, a board-certified veterinary nutritionist, diplomat of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine and founder of Whole Pet Provisions.

They unpack what terms like "fresh," "human grade" and "ultra-processed" actually mean on a pet food label, why there are only around 120 board-certified veterinary nutritionists in the world, and what the evidence actually supports when it comes to feeding your pet well.

Most health problems in pets don't appear overnight. The signs are there, often months or years before a diagnosis, and owners often notice them without knowing what they mean.

In this episode, Dr Mia Cobb speaks with Paloma Newton, co-founder and CEO of Elita, the world's first longevity platform for pets powered by biology. Paloma came to preventive pet health when her own dog Edgar, a Cocker Spaniel cross Golden Retriever, was flagged for health risks before they'd developed.

They explore what personalised, biology-led care actually looks like in practice, why owners already know more about their pets than they think, and how the tools being built right now could change what early intervention means for dogs and cats.

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

Most of us don’t just want more years for our pets – we want more good ones. That difference, between lifespan and healthspan, is where the science of pet longevity is heading.

In this episode, Dr Mia Cobb speaks with Dr Matthew Muir, integrative veterinarian, co-founder of Lyka and member of the PLI Scientific Advisory Board. Matt came to this field through emergency practice, watching the same preventable conditions cycle through again and again.

Together, they explore what healthspan actually means, why whole food nutrition is one of the most powerful and underused tools in veterinary practice, and what owners and vets can do right now to start shifting the dial.
