About us
As the leading dog DNA company for breed and health insights, we know a thing or two about what makes over two million dogs unique. Behavior is a nuanced subject — shaped by genetics, environmental factors, a dog's history, and more. We've created EmbarkTogether to provide accessible, online education that takes all of these factors into account to help you understand why your dog behaves the way they do — and what training techniques are the best fit for both of you.
We’ve seen positive results from pet parents of dogs of all breeds and ages, from dogs who have just been adopted and pets who have been in the family for years — proving that EmbarkTogether can teach any dog (and their human) some new tricks.
