Pets bring a lot of joy into an individual’s life. Most people think of their pets as members of the family.

For dogs, physical activity is one half of a healthy life; good rest being the other. We know many diseases and conditions manifest and affect normal patterns of physical activity and research is currently focused on teasing apart the idiosyncrasies and nuances. One of the most objective and unobtrusive ways of measuring physical activity is using accelerometers. Pet wearables are now a “thing” and these sometimes-fashionable gadgets do a great job of measuring daily patterns and intensity in an objective way.

This initiative seeks to holistically approach the development of a sustainable Animal Health market that will target farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa by mobilizing the infrastructure, expertise and products currently available. Importantly, A.L.P.H.A. is dedicated to including smallholder livestock keepers in the initiative.
