Loyal's comms team is hiring!
We've had excellent coverage to date, including cover stories in NYT, WIRED, Jon Stewart's podcast, etc
aaaand it's only going to get crazier as we get closer to launching our first dog lifespan extension drug
Lee Sung Jin shines a spotlight on @loyalfordogs in his Emmys speech.
Loyal has been trialing an anti-aging pill for dogs that hopes to extend our dog's lives by at least 1yr.
Their drugs:
- LOY-001 & LOY-003: for large and giant breed dogs (est. launch 2026)
- LOY-002: for older dogs of just about every breed of dog but the smallest (est. launch 2025).
LOY-001 has already shown promise in affecting metabolic aging factors (aka slowing the production of a hormone, IFG-1, which drives cell growth, and is believed to be the culprit for accelerating their aging
Everything we do is for the dogs we love too. Loyal was mentioned at the #Emmys this evening — congrats to #Beef for winning the award for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series tonight, Lee Sung Jin!
