Built by veterinarians, for veterinary professionals. Discover how genetic testing personalizes the care you already provide and the impact it can have on improving the lives of your patients.
Actionable health insights
With testing for 270+ genetic health risks and detailed breed mix results included, prepare for — and even prevent — illnesses before they arise.
Designed to be read by a medical professional (because it’s written by our veterinary geneticists), the report you receive for each patient provides high-level overviews, in-depth clinical guidance, and what to do with the information, including:
- How to interpret the results
- Background on the identified health risks
- Clinical signs
- Age of onset of clinical signs or symptoms
- Penetrance and additional impact on phenotype
- Follow-up diagnostics to consider
- Treatment and management options
- References to learn more

How to interpret this result
June Bug has two copies of this codominant variant in the ABCB1 gene. Dogs that inherit two abnormal copies (homozygous) will produce
no normal p-glycoprotein and will be most strongly affected. Dogs that inherit only one abnormal copy of the ABCB1 gene
(heterozygous) can show some effects though they will be less severely impacted because some normal p-glycoprotein will still be
produced.
Whole-hospital management
Empower your entire staff to incorporate genetic screening with an easy-to-use dashboard designed for veterinary clinics. Utilizing this dashboard makes it easy to view the status of your patient’s swabs, review results, and access exclusive resources.
How it works
-
Swab
Collect a saliva sample with a simple 30-second cheek swab.
-
Plan
Review results on your Veterinary dashboard, with a custom report for each patient.
-
Treat
With tailored recommendations and decision support from Embark's veterinary geneticists, create customized care plans and treatments for each patient.
“If I had this ability 12 years ago, we could have gotten ahead of it...”
“We had a black lab mix who’s skin problems had gotten so bad, that the owners were considering euthanasia. If we had genetic testing at the start to indicate a high risk for Ichthyosis, we would have been able to prevent 12 years of heartache, frustration, and thousands of dollars worth of testing. Embark now provides an opportunity to prevent all of those things in the future.”
