Additional information
Discover your dog’s genetic origins
Every dog carries a unique genetic history. While physical appearance may suggest certain breeds, the underlying genetic composition can often be more complex.
The Dog DNA Breed Identification Test analyzes your dog’s DNA to identify the breeds present in its genetic background. By examining specific genetic markers and comparing them with a reference database, this test can detect the contribution of more than 350 dog breeds.
Whether your dog was adopted, is a mixed breed, or comes from an unknown lineage, this test provides valuable insight into your companion’s biological heritage.
What the test reveals
Your dog’s DNA analysis can identify several aspects of its genetic background.
Breed composition
The test compares your dog’s DNA profile with a large database of recognized dog breeds to determine which breeds may be present in its ancestry.
Estimated breed proportions
Results indicate the percentage contribution of each detected breed within your dog’s genetic profile.
Insights into inherited traits
Understanding the breeds that contribute to your dog’s genetic makeup may help explain certain physical characteristics or behavioral tendencies.
