“Health issues were fixed”
“Health issues were fixed”
“One of my dogs has a hereditary issue. Embark notified me immediately before completing the rest of the tests. I took Allie to the vet, unknown health issues were fixed and she is now on preventative treatment (prescription dog food). So grateful!”
– Vicky Y.
“We have weekly play dates”
“We have weekly play dates”
“I was beyond excited to have found a brother who was a 56% match, probably from a previous litter. We connected and learned that they lived only 15 minutes from us. We now have weekly play dates.”
– Daniela T.
“Our dog found her passion”
“Our dog found her passion”
“We have been able to tailor Loki’s training and exercise regime much better to suit her needs now that we know she is composed of primarily working breeds. Our dog found her passion in scent work and has been much happier since.”
– Darius K.
Why test your dog’s DNA with Embark?
Breed is just the beginning. We’ll give you more info about your dog than anyone else, all backed by serious science.
You swab your dog
Who knew your dog’s drool contained so much incredible information? In less than 30 seconds, our soft swab collects enough saliva to analyze 230,000 genetic markers.
We crunch the data
Our scientists analyze more genetic information than other companies, and we test for each health condition multiple times. In case you were wondering: yes, we do wear lab coats.
Results you can use
Breed breakdown. Genetic health risks. Canine relatives. Ancient ancestry. There’s so much juicy info in an Embark report, we can’t fit it all here.
Data that matters
Our mission is to make scientific discoveries that will improve the lives of all dogs. When you test your dog with Embark, you’re contributing the data that helps us do that.
