A plan that adapts
Help your dog live better, for longer.
Nara finds what matters most, gives you a practical plan, and adapts it as your dog changes.

The problem with episodes
Most dog health is episodic.
Aging is not.
One observation can be useful. Nutrition, body composition, movement, laboratory results and owner observations become more meaningful when they are read together and compared over time.
Repeated observations turn a moment into a pattern Nara can understand.

The calorie number is not the conclusion. It becomes useful when weight, body condition, muscle condition and activity are interpreted together.

Stable weight is reassuring here because body condition and muscle condition are also preserved.
One result is a snapshot. A connected record can show what is changing, what matters and what should happen next.
From connected data to a decision
Early accessOne clear focus.
A plan that changes when the evidence does.
Nara turns the Baseline into a structured program. It connects what was done, how the dog responded and the wider health context before it recommends what comes next.
Current program · illustrative
Stage · Find a comfortable baselineWalking Fitness Foundations
Build comfortable, consistent activity to support fitness, mobility and long-term wellbeing.
Current focus
Walking consistency
Why this program
The Baseline shows low activity without a recorded pain, mobility or exercise-tolerance limit.
Your next step
Tell Nara how your dog moved after the latest walk.
The walk is only half of the observation. Nara pairs it with next-day recovery before deciding whether the current level still feels comfortable.
Next check-in
Record next-day movement and recovery.

Program journey
Each stage adds evidence.
- 01
Find the baseline
Learn the duration that feels comfortable.
- 02
Build consistency
Repeat comparable walks without worse recovery.
- 03
Progress carefully
Increase only when the recorded response supports it.
- 04
Review and adapt
Continue, adjust or advance based on what happened.
How Nara makes a decision
The plan updates when the evidence changes.
Nara connects completion, effort, recovery, symptoms and relevant health context across time. It looks for a consistent pattern before recommending whether to continue, adjust or progress.
Signals Nara connects
- Walking duration and completed walking days
- Effort, willingness and comparable conditions
- Immediate safety signs during or after the walk
- Next-day movement, pain, lameness and recovery
Safety boundaries
Choose a familiar route. Stop for breathing difficulty, collapse, marked weakness, pain or new lameness. Do not increase duration while recovery or next-day function is worse.
A library of structured protocols
Different dogs need
different next steps.
Nara can structure work across activity, confidence, play, mobility, nutrition and healthy aging. Each program defines what to record, when to review and what would justify a change.

Current focus

Build calm predictions
One data point is a signal. The pattern across time is the intelligence.
Each program has a starting prescription, defined observations, progression rules and safety boundaries. Nara connects that record with the wider health model before it recommends what comes next.
Explore an illustrative progressionOne connected health model
Nara turns fragmented health data into one living model of your dog.
Nutrition, movement, recovery, body condition, emotional wellbeing, symptoms, health history and lab results are read together and tracked over time. That context shapes every priority and next step.
Nara Healthspan Plan
Max’s plan
5 y 5 mo · male · intact · ideal body condition
Illustrative example
Current focus
Make unfamiliar-dog encounters safer and less distressing while protecting healthy body condition and muscle.
Max’s physical baseline is strong. The clearest current effect on daily life is behavioural, so the plan prioritizes calmer dog encounters while nutrition and movement continue to support what is already going well.
Why now
Strong reactivity and discomfort around unfamiliar dogs have the clearest current effect on Max’s daily experience.
Protect alongside it
Keep Max lean, maintain the muscle he has now, and preserve comfortable movement through regular activity and a modest strength component.

Canine nutrition, interpreted
The label is only the starting point.
Nara connects what is in the food with how much your dog actually eats, including treats and extras. It then reads that intake alongside body condition, activity, age, health history and change over time.
- 01
Record
Food label, serving amount, treats, toppers and extras
- 02
Calculate
Daily calories, protein per 1,000 kcal and carbohydrate by difference
- 03
Interpret
Read the numbers against body condition, activity and the dog’s goal
The useful shift
A better calorie mix for Max
Keep Max’s total intake within his energy target. Then shift more of those calories toward protein and fewer toward carbohydrate.
Illustrative nutrition interpretation
Protein
Increase
55.7 to 79.8 g per 1,000 kcal
Below Nara’s preferred range for this dog. Move toward 75 to 105 g per 1,000 kcal.
Total calories
Follow the energy target
Keep the total within range
Change the calorie mix without pushing total intake above the amount Max is likely to need.
Carbohydrate
Reduce somewhat
25.3 to 33.4% of calories
Moderate for this diet. Some of these calories would be more useful as protein for Max.
Carbohydrate is estimated from the label by difference. Even with that uncertainty, Max’s recorded diet still supports moving some calories from carbohydrate to protein while keeping total intake within his target.
Evidence engine
Longevity science, without the hype.
Nara evaluates what the evidence actually shows, what species it comes from, how safe it appears, and whether it is relevant to this dog.
Evidence is not one bucket
Direct canine outcomes
What happened in dogs, including function, symptoms, disease outcomes or longevity.
Canine biomarkers and safety
Useful context, but a changed marker is not the same as a demonstrated health benefit.
Human and other-animal evidence
Useful for translation, but never treated as proof that something works in dogs.
Biological plausibility
Mechanisms can make an idea interesting. They cannot prove a meaningful canine outcome.
The same framework is used across foundations, common canine supplements and emerging geroscience. That includes omega-3 EPA+DHA, creatine, urolithin A, NMN/NR and investigational approaches such as rapamycin.
Dog-specific fit · illustrative
Worth using for this dog?
Evidence strength and personal fit are deliberately kept separate.
L-theanine
Reasonable to considerAn observable emotional-wellbeing goal gives it a defined role alongside behaviour work.
Marine omega-3 EPA+DHA
Reasonable to considerValue depends on the goal. Canine evidence differs substantially by outcome.
Astaxanthin
Probably unnecessaryInteresting evidence does not create a reason to prioritize it without a dog-specific objective.
Urolithin A
Not worth prioritizing for this dogPromising mitochondrial biology remains different from demonstrated canine clinical benefit.
Evidence tells Nara whether something can work. Personal fit asks whether it is worth using for this dog.
Sometimes the scientifically responsible recommendation is to do nothing, or to put a stronger foundation ahead of a more exciting intervention.
