Our Age Test analyzes how a dog’s unique life has impacted the structure of their DNA. **Q: Do I need to swab my dog again if I’ve already used an Embark DNA test?** A: Yes. Age Test follows a different process in the lab and we can’t use the same swab for Age Test and our other DNA tests. Each test is run separately and requires its own swab. **Q: Why is the turnaround time for the Age Test longer than Embark’s other DNA tests?** A: Age Test involves a special processing step during DNA extraction that allows us to measure methylation. This step requires additional time, making the turnaround time slightly longer than that of our other DNA tests. **Q: How do I return my dog's sample?** A: If you're located in the US, use the enclosed envelope and prepaid return label to ship your sample back to us. ## Frequently Bought Together - Embark Dog Age Test Kit - Estimates Age and Birthday - DNA Methylation - Best for Dogs Past Puppy Stage - Includes Life Stage Care Tips - Great for Rescue Dogs - Embark Breed & Health Kit - Dog DNA Test - Discover Breed, Ancestry, Relative Finder, Genetic Health, Traits, COI - Wisdom Panel Essential Dog DNA Kit: Most Accurate Test for 365+ Breeds, 30 Genetic Health Conditions, 50+ Traits, Relatives, Ancestry - 1 Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/609220459-dog-age-test-kit-estimates-dogs-age-and-birthday-from](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/609220459-dog-age-test-kit-estimates-dogs-age-and-birthday-from) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-27*
