Good luck finding information on the latter. What studies you find are likely funded by drug companies.
Keep in mind that my mother, deceased 2 years ago at age 84, remembered her aunt's dogs living upwards of 20 years old. Something has shortened their lives but we're hard pressed to prove it with "scientific" studies. |
