Why? It’s not like there aren’t any reliable or accurate DNA tests for dogs. Only one of the 3 companies they submitted to gave a breed assessment. The other 2 correctly identified that there wasn’t any dog DNA in the samples.
This right here. I sent in a sample of my dogs DNA to embark and they got it right, even confirming another breed I wasn't 100% sure she had in her.
