The advent of smart pet trackers, such as the innovative device developed by Queva, represents a significant leap forward in pet health monitoring. These devices offer a comprehensive approach to understanding and maintaining pet well-being, focusing on health metrics and behavioral patterns that can lead to early detection of potential health issues.Smart Pet Tracker Enhances Health MonitoringThe Queva smart pet tracker is designed to monitor a pet's health and behavior, providing pet owners with valuable insights through a user-friendly app. This technology allows for the tracking of various health indicators, including a general health score that takes into account factors such as age, weight, and activity levels. Tracking calorie expenditure and behavioral changes, such as excessive scratching or head shaking, serves as a crucial warning system for pet owners. By identifying these symptoms early, the device can prompt owners to take action before a minor issue escalates into a more serious health concern.One of the standout features of the Queva tracker is its ability to facilitate early detection of health problems. For instance, the device can recognize patterns of behavior that may indicate underlying issues, such as ear infections. If a dog begins to shake its head or scratch its ears more than usual, the app prompts the owner with targeted questions to assess the situation. This proactive approach not only helps in diagnosing potential problems but also guides owners toward simple preventive measures, such as cleaning the dog's ears, which can mitigate the need for costly veterinary visits.Preventing Problems Before They Get BadPreventive health care is a central theme surrounding smart pet trackers. Just as wearable technology for humans has revolutionized personal health monitoring, these devices aim to optimize pet care. By using the tracker, pet owners can bridge the gap between infrequent veterinary visits, typically once or twice a year, and the everyday health monitoring that is essential for their pets. This continuous tracking empowers owners to make informed decisions about their pet's health, reducing stress for both the owner and the animal while potentially saving money on veterinary expenses.Moreover, the information collected by these devices can also be invaluable to veterinarians. Just as doctors benefit from comprehensive health data when assessing a patient, veterinarians can use the insights provided by smart pet trackers to better understand a pet's health history and current condition. This collaborative approach between pet owners and veterinary professionals enhances the overall quality of care, ensuring that pets receive timely and effective treatment.Conclusion: Protect Your Pet's Health and WellbeingIn conclusion, the introduction of smart pet trackers like the one from Queva represents a significant advancement in pet health monitoring.

In this episode of Petworking, host Peter Kenseth sits down with Jaime Paris, founder and CEO of proNova, to discuss their groundbreaking at-home pet diagnostic device launching in 2025. Using just a saliva sample, PRONOVA's technology monitors six key health biomarkers in dogs, including inflammation, diabetes, stress, and organ function. Paris shares how the technology helped detect a serious health issue in his own dog before symptoms appeared, and discusses how PRONOVA could make regular health monitoring more accessible to pet parents. Learn how this innovation could transform preventative pet healthcare by helping catch potential issues early, while establishing personalized baseline health data for each pet. From the technology behind the device to its potential impact on pet healthcare accessibility, this episode explores how innovations in preventative diagnostics could help create better health outcomes for our pets.

On today's One Life Radio Podcast, host Bernadette Fiaschetti talks with Dr. Marlene Siegel about innovations in veterinary care and ways to keep our pets healthy and happy.

For pet parents, her course enables them to learn how to integrate a holistic lifestyle and therapies for their fur babies. Her online courses for veterinarians are focused on supporting veterinarians who want to learn more about integrating alternative services into their mainstream practices.  When she was unable to find proper diets and supplements to meet her patient needs, she developed her own raw food and essential supplements company and is preparing to launch S'Paws Family Wellness Centers which are detox centers for pets and their human parents.www.drmarlenesiegel.comDr Siegel has a free ebook - 9 Keys to Health and Healing,Holistically - https://courses.transformingvetmedicine.com/free-ebook-1143Social Media Handles -Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrMarleneSiegelHolisticVetInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmarlenesiegel/?next=%2F

Today, I have the privilege of engaging in a fascinating and eye-opening conversation with Dr. Judy Morgan, a renowned figure in the field of veterinary care.  As a certified veterinary acupuncturist, chiropractic owner, and food therapist, Dr. Morgan's expertise extends way beyond traditional allopathic medicine. Although she retired from clinical practice in 2020, her dedication to promoting exceptional veterinary care remains unwavering, both within the United States and abroad.  In our discussion, we dive into the factors contributing to the declining health of our beloved pets, such as the alarming obesity rates affecting 60% of pets in the United States. We also explore the flaws within the pet food industry, including the significant influence of Mars Petcare, a conglomerate that has acquired a substantial portion of the processed food industry.  Our conversation covers a myriad of topics, ranging from the distinctions between rendered and food-grade meat to the complexities surrounding grain-free diets. We touch on the contentious subject of vaccines, explain how to navigate between core and non-core vaccinations, and discuss specific concerns, such as lipomas, tooth care, exercise, and grooming. We also explore the best approaches to selecting flea and tick preventatives and the potential health implications of chemicals and plastics on our pets.  As someone who once contemplated a career in veterinary medicine, it was a true delight to interview Dr. Morgan- especially considering my allergies prevented me from pursuing that path! I encourage you to explore her insightful books and online resources because I am confident you will find them invaluable. Join me in this enlightening discussion that will undoubtedly shed light on essential aspects of pet care and welfare! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Why the health of our animals is declining. The difference between feed-grade and food-grade meat or food. How conglomerates are taking over the care of our pets- and not in a good way. Pet food that has Dr. Morgan's stamp of approval. What to look out for when reading the list of ingredients on a bag of pet food. The longest chapter in Dr. Morgan's brand new book, Raising Naturally Healthy Pets, is on vaccines. Dr. Morgan shares her recommendations for navigating flea and tick season. Dr. Morgan talks about lipomas. Why do you need to brush your dog's teeth every day? The problem with ignoring dental disease. Why dogs and cats need to exercise every day. What to look out for if you have to have your pet's anal glands cleaned out all the time. An entire chapter in Dr. Morgan's new book is dedicated to finding a veterinarian who is right for you.

Akston Biosciences is revolutionizing pet healthcare through innovative protein engineering and biotechnology solutions. After selling his first company Smart Cells to Merck for over $500M, Todd Zion founded Akston Biosciences in 2011 to apply advanced biotech expertise to the growing pet health market. With over $50M in funding, Akston is developing breakthrough treatments including once-weekly insulin, cancer therapies, and other protein-based medicines for pets, while maintaining cost effectiveness for pet owners. Topics Discussed:  The transition from human health biotech to the pet health market  Streamlined clinical trial processes in pet health vs. human health  The evolution of the pet healthcare market and consumer willingness to pay  Balancing technical innovation with cost-effective development  The challenges of fundraising in an emerging biotech category  Pipeline development across multiple pet health conditions   GTM Lessons For B2B Founders:  Navigate pivots decisively: Todd emphasized that most founders wait too long to pivot. He advises that when you start seeing signs that the future isn't unfolding as planned, that's the time to begin considering a pivot - while you still have resources and before becoming too entrenched. Their pivot to focusing entirely on pet health required significant restructuring but ultimately created a clearer path forward. Find the regulatory sweet spot: Akston discovered that pet health offered a faster path to market validation compared to human health biotech. The ability to conduct field trials with just hundreds rather than thousands of subjects, combined with more streamlined regulatory requirements, allowed them to de-risk their assets more quickly and cost-effectively while still maintaining high standards. Build for the actual market conditions: Rather than assuming future market changes (like expanded pet insurance coverage), Akston designs their products around current market realities - namely that most pet medications are paid out-of-pocket. This forced them to innovate not just technically but in development and manufacturing to keep costs accessible to pet owners. Create new categories through technology translation: Instead of building an entirely new technology, Akston applied proven biotech approaches from human health to the pet market. This allowed them to leverage existing expertise while pioneering a new category, positioning themselves as "the Biogen for pets" rather than just another pet health company. Structure early testing for rapid validation: By utilizing the FDA's investigational new animal drug application process, Akston could begin testing in their target population much earlier in development. This enabled them to validate their concepts within a year rather than waiting through multiple phases of trials, allowing for more efficient resource allocation.     //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co
