Share your dog’s Embark Results with Darwin’s Dogs

PUBLISHED ON August 23, 2017 by brittney logan

If you have Embark results for your dog, you can share their genetic data with us! We’re curious to find out how our software for figuring breed ancestry compares to your dog’s Embark results.

It can be a bit complicated to find the raw data on Embark’s website, so we’ve put together step-by-step instructions below (Thank you, Nellie, for modeling for us!). We really appreciate your help!

Please follow the step below in order to save and email the Shareable Public Profile Link as well as the Downloaded Zip File which you will email to share@darwinsark.org.

  1. Log in at Embark.

  2. Click on your dog’s name name

  3. Scroll to the bottom of the page, to the “Reports and Downloads” section.

  4. Click on the “RAW DATA” link and save it to your computer.

  5. Email the downloaded .zip file and the “Shareable Public Profile” link to share@darwinsark.org

  6. Please make sure to title your email as follows:

Embark results for (dog’s first name) (your last name)

Thank you! We greatly appreciate your help in furthering our canine behavior and genetics research!
