This was very easy to use. Just make sure that the animal has a moist mouth, or it will be sent back for you to try again. We were very pleased with the results, although it took a few weeks to get them back. We had tried it first on one of our dogs (which we knew what breed he was)just to make sure they were legitimate. They are!

Our shelter dog is clearly Rhodesian Ridgeback, but who else was lurking in there? This very simple, very quick DNA test let us know that she's a true mix: Rhodesian as the most prominent breed, and bits and pieces of 6 other breeds to round her out nicely. It was fantastic getting to learn of her lineage, so we can train her accordingly and be aware of any medical needs/issues that could come up later in life.
Because BioPet does NOT request a photo of the dog, you can be sure they're not guessing. I truly enjoyed the experience of learning more about our girl, and would highly recommend this test for others!

I purchased two kits for my two dogs. My husband and I were both really excited to finally determine, what our dogs were. We already knew our first dog was a Whippet mix, and our second dog a Border Collie mix. After the tests got back apparently it found my whippet, has no whippet but instead Irish Setter, German Shepperd, and Rottweiler? Not even close, if that were the case, she would a huge dog, and instead she only weighs 20 pounds, has the body, rib cage, and S shape tail, typical in Whippets, and Italian Grey Hounds, as well as the same features. For my second dog, it didn't even find anything close to a Border Collie but instead a Boston Terrier? Not even close... So result, we're still not sure what they are mixed with, and we wasted almost $100. Don't waste your money!

I bought this test for my dog that was a rescue from a shelter and it was completely ridiculous. She is 50 lbs, and looks a lot like a Lab , setter or Austrailan Shepherd mix. The results came back unable to identify a dominant breed but did reveal that she is most identified as a Pomeranian and Daschund. These are toy breeds and 5-10 lb dogs! It did say that she is less then 10 percent lab, akita, poodle and english setter. So she is 6 dogs and the most dominant are toy breeds, what a joke. I wasted $50 on this test when I could have used it towards a real test or maybe some dog food! Please no one waste your money or time on this test!
 Great Idea; only 50% successful September 29, 2008

I bought a DNA kit for each of my 2 dogs. One dog I knew was mixed but it has always been a mystery which breeds are represented. I received the results and was so excited because I could see the results in my dog for each breed listed. It was wonderful to finally know.
I know what my other dog is but have thought he may have something else in him. The DNA results were so far off it was a joke. There is not a shred of any of the breeds listed in him and the breed I know he has is not listed.
Wonder if it got confused with another dog, maybe?
