Orivet Breed Identification DNA Test Kit

The Dog Breed Identification DNA test reveals the breed(s) that make up your dog. The comprehensive report will note the percentage of breeds that determine your pet’s ancestry and includes an up to 3-generation ancestry report (up to great grandparent level) and includes a personalized LifePlan(™).

Knowing the breeds that make up your dog can help you make better decisions around their health and can provide an insight into your dog’s personality and behaviour. The report will also indicate if your dog is susceptible to any heritable health risks and what you should do about them.

If your dog is still a puppy (under 12 months of age), knowing the breed makeup can help predict what your dog is expected to weigh in adulthood. Nutritional suggestions are also made based on the breeds identified in your dog.
