Ever wonder what type of breed(s) your lovely mutt is? When you have those moments where you scratch your head – WHAT ARE YOU? Well now you have the opportunity.
With BioPet Vet Labs DNA Breed Identification test you finally now have scientific results to help you figure out why your dogs hair is so wild or why your relatively calm dog is going insane and running around like a mad dog.
With the DNA test you can get a better understanding of your dog’s behavior, any potential health risks and a better understanding of your dog’s personality.
The DNA sample that is provided will enable the identification of which breeds are present in your pet. The current BioPet database enable Pet Labs to detect breeds present in the genetic make-up of 92% of the US dog population.
Some information about the test:
- The test results are available in only 2 weeks after receipt of the dog sample.
- Price includes all fees – Upon completion of analysis, you will be mailed an Ancestry Analysis Certificate, suitable for framing. You will also receive a Behavior, Health and Personality Summary which will give you general information pertaining to each of the breeds found.
- You can collect the DNA sample yourself.
The DNA test does not hurt your pet in anyway. You only need a swap from your dogs mouth.
For more information or to purchase your dog’s DNA test you can stop by either Dog-a-holics location.
