Overview

At-home cheek-swab DNA test for dogs, screening for 430+ breeds plus an MDR1 drug-sensitivity health marker, ancestry, and relative matching. One kit per box, results processed by mail-in lab.

This is a diagnostic test kit, not a supplement or gadget, so its value depends on lab turnaround and database size rather than the physical contents of the box, which amount to two swabs, an activation code, and a prepaid mailer. Results arrive roughly two to three weeks after the sample ships back.

  • Tests for 430+ breeds
  • Includes MDR1 health marker
  • Ancestry and relative matching
  • Prepaid shipping label included

Who it's for

Owners who want documented breed ancestry or an MDR1 sensitivity flag before choosing medications for a mixed-breed or rescue dog. Not useful for anyone wanting same-day results or a full veterinary diagnostic panel.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Prepaid return shipping included
  • MDR1 drug-sensitivity marker included alongside breed results
  • Simple two-swab collection process
Cons
  • Results take about 2 to 3 weeks, not immediate
  • One dog per kit

Performance notes

The kit works by collecting two cheek swabs rolled against the dog's gums for 15 seconds each, air-drying them, then mailing them back in the prepaid carton with an activation code tied to the sample. Turnaround is roughly 2 to 3 weeks from when the lab receives the swabs, and results cover breed makeup, the MDR1 marker, and relative matching within Wisdom's database.
