The Birth of Barkle
Barkle's origins trace back to a collaborative effort involving the University of Pennsylvania's Medical and Dental schools alongside the Veterinary School. Dr. Walter Cohen, former Dean of the Dental School, recognized a pressing need for a solution to combat periodontal infection in dogs.
Scientific Milestone:
As Barkle embarked on its journey, a pivotal revelation emerged—dogs develop plaque and tartar primarily on the outer surfaces of their teeth. This groundbreaking insight paved the way for an owner-friendly solution. Barkle, designed to easily and gently prevent plaque and tartar, is a dog-friendly alternative to brushing that improves oral health.
On a Mission:
Barkle has undertaken a mission to confront the epidemic of periodontal disease in dogs. This will be accomplished by educating the public about the reality of periodontal disease while acknowledging the impracticality of daily brushing and expensive cleanings under anesthesia. Barkle envisions a future where the seamless incorporation of daily application becomes a routine for pet owners, under the supervision of a veterinarian.
Future Outlook:
Barkle aspires to redefine canine oral care, establishing daily prevention as the new standard. The envisioned future includes the introduction of an easily accessible at-home diagnostic device for the early detection of infections, fostering positive and proactive oral health for your dog.
