Meet the founder
Hi! I am Akash Murali,
The founder of Urban
Animal
I adopted Milo when he was just a little puppy. He filled my life with so much joy. He got diagnosed with arthritis when he was two years old. It was at this point that I realised, I didn’t know him as well as I could have – I knew nothing of his genetic history or the complications he was predisposed to. This drove me to find a solution that makes DNA testing accessible, accurate and affordable to every pet parent and that’s when Urban Animal was born.
