Pako — Daily Health & Longevity for Your Dog

Nothing dramatic shortens a dog’s life.

It happens quietly — a generous scoop, a skipped walk, a few extra pounds nobody notices until the vet mentions it. The good news runs the same way: the everyday things are also the ones you can do something about.

In a fourteen-year study, Labrador littermates were raised side by side. One of each pair was kept lean — and those dogs lived a median of 1.8 years longer.

Every little question, finally answered.

Is this the right food? Are they eating too much? Is that weight okay? Pako gives you a real answer for your dog — not a guess from the back of a bag.

A plan built for exactly your dog.

Pako works out their daily calories, protein, fat, fibre, water and meals from breed, age, weight, neuter status and activity — and recalculates them whenever their profile changes.

Every part of their care, in one place.

Meals, walks, grooming, vaccines, medications, vet visits and behaviour — log each one as it happens, and it all builds one record of their care.

Learn more

Know it’s right before it’s in the bowl.

Scan a food’s barcode and see how it grades against your dog’s own targets. Check their eyes, ears, skin and paws with a body scan, and digestive health from a stool or vomit scan.

See where they stand.

Their profile and the last week of care come together in one health score from 0 to 100, with a longevity projection that compares their outlook with their breed’s average.

Watch the good days add up.

Progress shows every area of care over time, so you can see what’s working — a steadier routine, a weight heading the right way, a better week than the last.

Everything you need to plan their care.

The Plan tab holds libraries for foods, activities, grooming, medical and behaviour, so planning anything for them starts from real options instead of a blank page.

Five areas of care. One place for all of them.

Your daily targets, the Plan tab and Progress are all organised around the same five areas, so you always know where everything lives.

Nutrition

Meals, treats, supplements and water.

Activity

Walks, play and training.

Medical

Vaccines, medications and vet visits.

Grooming

The routines that keep their coat, skin and paws comfortable.

Behaviour

Mood, training progress and anything out of the ordinary.

Made for real life, not perfect owners.

Logging a meal or a walk fits into the day you already have, so keeping it up never turns into another chore.

Pako is there to help, not to judge. The health score shows what’s helping and what could improve — never a verdict on you as an owner.

Every day you log adds to their history, so changes in weight, appetite and activity become easy to spot long before they’re easy to see.

Every answer has real science behind it.

Pako’s targets come from published veterinary research and a catalogue it actually holds — not an average dog, and not a number pulled from the air. Where the evidence stops, it tells you.

Energy needs Resting energy from the standard 70 × kg^0.75 curve, with maintenance multipliers following WSAVA and NRC guidance for life stage, neuter status and workload.

Protein floors Set above FEDIAF and AAFCO minimums, and raised for growth, senior dogs, working dogs and weight loss, where lean mass is at risk.

Questions, answered honestly.

My dog seems healthy. Do I need this?

That’s exactly who it’s for. Much of what shapes a dog’s long-term health builds slowly — in everyday food, weight and activity — long before anything looks wrong. Pako helps you keep those on track while everything is still fine.

Will it make me feel like I’m doing it wrong?

No. Pako is built to help, not to judge. Its health score shows what’s helping and what could improve, never a verdict on you as an owner.

Does Pako replace my vet?

No, and it is not built to. Pako covers the ordinary days between visits — what your dog eats, drinks, weighs and does. When something needs a professional, it tells you that rather than guessing.

How accurate are the scans?

Food scanning looks up the barcode and reads the package when it has to. Body and digestive scans give general guidance, not a diagnosis. Every scan shows you what it found, so you can check it and correct it.

Will it work for a mixed breed or a rescue?

Yes. If you know the mix, you can build it from its parent breeds. If you don’t, targets still come from weight, age and life stage, so a rescue with an unknown history gets real numbers too.

Who can see my dog’s data?

You, and anyone you deliberately share with. It is never sold, never used to build an advertising profile, and never handed to a data broker. See our privacy policy.

Which devices does Pako run on?

iPhone and Android. Your account and your dog’s profile work on both, while daily logs are kept on the phone you log them on.
