Why Laika
Your dog sees their vet a few times a year. You see them every day. Laika helps with everything in between.
Saturday morning
“Is today a long-walk day?”
Laika weighs the weather, his age, and how he’s been moving, then suggests the walk that fits.
Dinner time
“Can he have this?”
He’s eyeing your plate and giving you the look. Laika knows what’s safe to share and what isn’t.
Sunday afternoon
“Wait, why does he do that?”
The head tilt. The zoomies. The grass snacking. Ask Laika and get a real answer, not forty forum threads.
Healthspan Management
More good years together.
Laika builds care around your dog’s age, breed, and medical history, so you can be proactive with their health instead of always reacting to it. Add their medical records and a DNA test result and Laika gets specific:
Preventive care that changes as they age
Health risks to watch for, from their breed and DNA
Medication sensitivities like MDR1, flagged for your vet
Laika Emergency
When something’s wrong, you’ll know what to do next.
Laika walks you through what’s happening and gets you to help fast: poison control in one tap, the nearest ER with directions, first aid for choking, bleeding, and heatstroke. Their records can be there before you are.
Laika triages and routes. It never replaces or delays veterinary care. In a life-threatening emergency, go to the nearest ER vet.
Ask Laika
Reliable answers, 24/7.
End the 2 a.m. doom-scrolling and endless Google searches. Ask Laika anything about your dog’s health and get clear answers grounded in their own records and their veterinarian’s protocols.
