The Dog Aging Project is alive and well, in part due to support from the 501(c)3 non-profit Dog Aging Institute. Thanks for your support!

Congratulations, Anne—wonderful news!!

For mortality rather than prevalence, you could use CDC data, such as the age/sex results summarized here www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes...

And of course, if you'd like to have your dog join the other 50,000+ members of the Dog Aging Project Pack, just go to dogagingproject.org and click on the "Enroll Your Dog" button. We welcome dogs of all ages and sizes, mixed breed and pure breed, from every part of the US.

There have been some reports about our funding challenges, but we are very much in operation and hard at work! And we have formed a non-profit, www.dogaginginstitute.org, so those interested can make a tax-deductible donation to support research on healthy aging in dogs. /fin

About 1% of the #dogagingproject dogs are enrolled in a clinical trial to test if rapamycin can increase healthy lifespan in dogs, the TRIAD trial. We are now recruiting dogs at sites throughout the US. They must be greater than 45 lbs and 7 years or older. dogagingproject.org/triad. 8/n

To learn more about the design and goals of the #dogagingproject, check out our website (https:// dogagingproject.org) or see this paper, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35110758/. 7/n

For a subset of 1000 dogs, our “Precision Cohort”, we have clinical pathology information, and next year’s release will also include measures of the epigenome, metabolome, microbiome, and immune phenotypes. 6/n

You can download and analyze the data and write your own papers about aging in dogs. How cool is that?! 5/n

We have low-pass coverage whole genome sequencing for more than 7000 dogs. To explore some of the findings from our genetic analysis, check out our Dog Aging Project PheWeb, broad.io/dogPheWeb. 4/n

The data include information about each dog’s age, behavior, health, and environment. Our Data Dashboard, data.dogagingproject.org, gives you a high-level summary of the tremendous variation among our 50,000 canine participants. 3/n

These data are freely available to academic researchers around the world. You can apply for data access here: dogagingproject.org/data-access. 2/n
