In this dynamic and educational episode of the Pets Add Life Podcast, hosts Chris Bonifati and Kristen Levine explore proactive pet wellness from every angle — from groundbreaking AI-powered dental tools to the latest gut microbiome research and holistic approaches to long-term health. This episode highlights how prevention, education, and informed decision-making can dramatically improve quality of life for pets and their families.
Kristen shares exciting news from Mars Petcare’s launch of an AI-powered dental screening tool, the Greenies Canine Dental Check, which allows dog owners to upload a photo of their dog’s teeth and receive instant feedback on tartar buildup and gum health.
Chris highlights a heartwarming local rescue story out of Norwalk, Connecticut, where firefighters successfully saved an adult swan trapped in icy waters — proving once again that first responders are heroes for animals too.
