A request from the Dog Agility Project

The Dog Aging Project, a long-term study of healthy aging in companion dogs being led by Texas A&M and the University of Washington. Currently, over 50,000 dogs are enrolled in the observational study, but we need more. It’s easy to enroll, and participation helps researchers identify how to help dogs live healthier, longer lives. The project welcomes dogs of all ages, breeds, health conditions, and lifestyles. Enrolled dogs remain at home with their families living their normal lives, while participants provide information through surveys, veterinary records, and optional at-home activities.    

If you would like to participate with your dog and/or spread the word, please visit the project’s Resources Page to enroll your dog or download tools for sharing such flyers for events, social media posts, newsletter articles, and blog posts.
