Wisdom Panel Breed Discovery Dog DNA Test Kit - Most Accurate Breed ID | Behaviours | MDR1 | Ancestry | Relatives

Very easy to do, comes with easy followed instructions. Results emailed to my phone. Got it as we were unsure what our rescue dog was, we were told he was staffy x boxer But following the results we learnt there’s a lot more breeds in him we never suspected! Helped us realise and understand his little personality traits!

Due to some negative feedback, I was sceptical about using this DNA kit. I completed info and followed instructions, but excluded full name of my dog and did not provide a photo of my pet. I did however have my suspicions as to some of my dog’s genetics. When the results came back, my suspicions were confirmed by 85% and surprised about the other 15% of my dogs genetics. Happy with results and a fair price for the kit. Love my dog just the way she is. Beautiful.

We brought an adorable puppy at 12 weeks old being told he was a Springer cross Cocker Spaniel- which legitimately he could have been with his long ears and mental behaviour. As he has grown over the past months (he is 11 months now) his legs got so long, his chest deep and waist slim, with a long feathered tail & backs of his legs and he grew in to his ears we realised this very fast and independent dog wasnt all he was made out to be! After many speculations and guesses, I needed to know what was in this lovely animals genes- so that I could understand his behaviour and better tailor the training I was doing to play to his natural instincts. The test arrived the following day, and was easy to complete- a quick swab in the cheeks- the dog thought it was a game at first but other than that it was simple. Popped it in the post and eagerly watched the online tracker to see what was happening. As the return address was in the UK I was surprised when it was over a week and still showed as 'not received'. I contacted the organisation who promptly explained that the sample was sent on to a lab in USA. A few days later it arrived- although after that the status didnt change again until the day I was emailed the results. I was so impressed with the level of detail in the report- it tracked our dogs genes back to his great grandparents. Each breed found has a fact sheet which explains the history of the breed, and statistics. It comes with a family tree and certificate! So, what is he? 50% English Springer Spaniel (all of his great and grand parents on one side) but the other 50% wasn't Cocker! He is 25% grey hound and 20% mixed breed. The test wasn't able to work out what the 'mixed breed' part was because it was too diluted but gave indications of what he is likely to be. I'd disagree with most of the suggested breeds- (Giant Schnauzer or Great Pyrenees for example!) maybe present in his DNA but not displayed in his appearance or behaviour- but Saluki is on there which is what I'd say was very likely. Anyway, in summary- definitely do it if you want to know about the unknown dog in your life's history. It'll satisfy curiosity if nothing else!!

Very easy to use

The dog I had tested was a rescue 'Honey' (found wandering the streets).. so no idea of her breeding at all, so I had her done out of interest, I guessed Lhasa apso or perhaps dachshund x... as she long, little legs, golden blonde scruffy coat, and floppy ears.. (still only a pup yet) I was very careful I did not contaminate the swabs she she does lick my other dogs mouth, so the swabs were taken first thing in the morning, before she had eaten, drank or licked anything (I crate her overnight, so this made it easy).. It did take a long time for the swabs to register that they were at the lab, as they are sent off to the USA, this took about 10 days.. (hence the 4 stars as they dont tell you this) though I did email them and did get a prompt reply.. The results came back that she is infact a mix of.. Westie, Lab, and Alaskan Malamute.. I didnt see westie in her at all, but a friend that has Westies does, and said she guessed that when I first got her, though I did think there was terrier in her.. Labrador... she does have the floppy ears, thick tail and coat colour and the intelligence Malamute.. now I know where that funny woo-woo-woo barky howl comes from.. Wisdom did tell me that they might not pick anything up as Im in Spain, and 'for example' a Lab born in the UK can have different DNA to one born in Spain... so perhaps thats why the grandparents on one side could not be recongnised.. though there were traces of Schnauzer and Yorkie in her.. So overall, Im impressed, I would recommend having it done if you want to know what your dog is.. and for me it was just a bit of fun....

Really good DNA test

Works really well!, the amount of ancestry information is startling!, my dog, is quiet a mix of breeds, but the main two are German shepherd dad, Staffy mum, that's all I really needed to know but having the extra long list is very interesting!.

Nous avons adopté notre petite chienne dans une famille dont la chienne avait eu une portee. Ne souhaitant pas nécessairement un chien pur race, nous avons craqué pour notre petite Polka. Les maîtres nous avaient dit qu'elle était un mélange de Spitz, sharpei, bulldog et pinscher. Mais en grandissante, on trouvait que Polka avait un physique et un tempérament nous faisant penser au Jack Russel. Nous avons donc décidé d'en savoir plus sur ses origines et en recevant les résultats, il s'avère qu'elle n'a pas du tout de Jack Russel dans ses gènes . Elle a bien du bulldog, sharpei, spitz comme nous l'avait indiqué la famille, mais aussi un gros pourcentage de chihuahua ! Faire le prélèvement est très simple, il suffit de frotter les écouvillons dans la joue du chien et de renvoyer le prélèvement dans une enveloppe pre-affranchie. Il faut ensuite s'armer de patience.. nous avons du attendre un peu plus d'un mois pour avoir les résultats. Mais il y a un site facile d'accès qui permet de suivre étape par étape la procédure afin de savoir où en est l'analyse. Les résultats sont ensuite communiqués sous forme de pourcentages avec une description de chaque race. Je suis donc plus que satisfaite de mon achat, et je conseille vivement Wisdom panel pour l'analyse adn permettant de définir les races d'origine pour les chiens. Nous sommes très contentes de savoir qui est notre petite Polka et nous allons pouvoir aussi mieux comprendre ses réactions et adapter notre éducation.

Sembr abbastanza accurato.

Easy to use and helped to understand our mix breed puppy better with certain behaviour. Money well spent.

Had 3 and all great! Such fun. Found out our pedigree sausage dog is a chihuahua and our back street sausage dog is pedigree and no we didn’t mix up the tests we did them months apart lol

It’s easy to use and comes with detailed results going back three generations. My puppy was teething and still it wasn’t difficult to get the samples.
