How do you know which breeds are present in my dog? Our lab has invested a considerable amount of time in the science of DNA knowledge, analyzing DNA from purebred dogs to build a comprehensive database that highlights the differences between different breeds. By comparing your dog’s DNA with our database we can identify which breeds are present in your dog. What is the Canine Breed Composition DNA Analysis Certificate?
