Description
The DNA Breed Identification Test will identify the prevalent breeds in your
dog's DNA. These characteristics provide a better understanding of the dog's
behavior, potential health risks and personality. The DNA of any dog governs
the appearance of the dog as well as being related to the general behavioral
characteristics of the breed. In recent years, there has been a great deal of
research performed on how differences in DNA give rise to the differences that
are seen among breeds. Advances in DNA testing technology mean that it has
become possible to identify the ancestry of any dog by performing a simple
test using a cheek swab. The DNA required for the test to be run is isolated
from cells that are trapped on the swab. All cells carry the same genetic
material, regardless of the type or location in the animal. Taking a cheek
swab is therefore the easiest way to obtain the samples needed for testing.
Acquiring genetic breed heritage knowledge will help educate you about your
dog and his or her special health and behavior traits. You can now be
proactive about many of the important factors affecting your dogs life. You
possess insight into your dog's unique genetic background, including the
history of their breed, personality traits, exercise levels, and much more!
You have information on any diseases your dog may be predisposed to. Please
make sure to discuss any health issues with your vet and be proactive before
any serious illness strikes.
