How to read this
3 visits · 10-marker panel
Estimated from trend patterns across the bloodwork markers, which reflect changes in organ systems over time. A screening signal, not a diagnosis: read the trajectory, not any single marker.

9 of 9 in report
  1. 01
    Senior re-screen to confirm the trajectoryScreening
    FindingBiological age 11.0 yr is 2.0 yr ahead of calendar age.
    Repeat CBC + chemistry and add a thyroid panel (T4, free T4, TSH).
    ExpectedConfirms the drift is real before changing anything substantive.
    in 6 mo
  2. 02
    Recheck alkaline phosphataseLiver
    FindingALP up 64% over 2 years (55→90 U/L), now upper-range.
    Re-run ALP with GGT and bile acids; if it holds, screen for Cushing's.
    ExpectedCatches early hepatobiliary or endocrine change while it is still reversible.
    next visit
  3. 03
    Work up the albumin–globulin shiftProtein
    FindingAlbumin 3.8→3.4, globulin 2.9→3.3 g/dL — A:G falling.
    Recheck albumin and globulin with a urine protein:creatinine ratio.
    ExpectedSurfaces low-grade chronic inflammation or protein loss early.
    next visit
  4. 04
    Monitor the red-cell trendHematology
    FindingHemoglobin 16.0→14.6 g/dL with MCV and MCH trending down — still within range but declining.
    ExpectedSeparates benign aging from early microcytic anemia.
    next visit
  5. 05
    Measured-feeding planDiet
    FindingBody condition 6/9 (target 4–5/9): about 10% over ideal, so ideal weight is ~30.0 kg, with weight 32.0→33.0 kg (+3%) across the record.
    Feed a measured ~895 kcal/day (resting requirement at the 30.0 kg target); recheck weight and BCS in 4 weeks.
    Body condition6/9vet-entered at the exam · target 4–5/9
    ExpectedCaloric restriction is the best-evidenced longevity lever (Purina lifespan study: +1.8 yr).

  6. 06
    Baseline a mobility / orthopedic examMobility
    FindingLarge breed (Golden Retriever) at 9 yr. Radiographic osteoarthritis climbs with age — about 20% of dogs over 1 yr to ~80% over 8 (referral data, Johnston 1997).
    ExpectedGives a comparison point so early arthritis is caught at onset, not at crisis.

  7. 07
    Flag as a canine-longevity-drug candidateEligibility
    FindingMeets the LOY-002 window (≥7 yr, ≥10 lb) and is aging 2.0 yr ahead of schedule.
    Note eligibility for the vet to raise on conditional FDA approval. Years routes; it never prescribes.
    ExpectedPositions the dog for the prescribing rail without changing today's plan.
    flag
  8. 08
    Confirm the glucose trendMetabolic
    FindingGlucose 88→96 mg/dL, upper-range.
    Add fructosamine at the next fasting draw.
    ExpectedSeparates stress hyperglycemia from early metabolic drift.
    next visit
  9. 09
    Titer before boostingVaccines
    FindingSenior dog (9 yr) on a standard vaccine cadence.
    Run a DHPP titer and vaccinate only on a low result; owner reminders fire automatically.
    ExpectedAvoids over-vaccinating a senior.
