Dog Aging Institute

The  501(c)(3) non-profit Dog Aging Institute was inspired by the power of the human-companion dog bond and the groundbreaking work of the Dog Aging Project. The Dog Aging Institute promotes, supports and sustains research into healthy aging in companion dogs by generating financial support, facilitating partnerships, and developing educational resources. The Institute works to enhance public enthusiasm for innovative research discoveries that help people and their dogs live healthier, longer lives. Funds raised by the Institute are given as grants to enable basic research, dissemination of findings, and use of new knowledge to benefit dogs, their owners, the veterinary community and the research community.

The Dog Aging Institute was founded in 2023 and has successfully raised funds for research through the committed work of volunteers and short-term staff. We are excited to hire our first Development Manager who will help grow the Institute’s outreach and impact, to take our mission to the next level.
