Why We Built It
Our new Personality Quiz celebrates the little quirks that make your dog truly one of a kind. Now live in the app, this first chapter draws on your pup’s unique breed mix and expert insights from Embark’s veterinarians, geneticists, and behavior specialists.
Note: Not every dog will fit the mold—and that’s part of the fun. Breed ancestry may explain some tendencies, but training, environment, and life experience make an impact too. Your dog may zig where the “average” zagged, and we love that for them.
