Learn all about your best canine buddy with the help of a DNA My Dog NextGen Canine Breed Identification PLUS Genetic Age Test. Using a simple, at-home cheek swab, this paw-some test is designed to determine the biological age of your dog. Biological age is different than chronological age in that genetic age helps predict the longevity of your pooch from a cellular level. This test also determines your BFF’s breed composition. Results are available in approximately two weeks and include a report on all of the breeds found in your dog's DNA by percentage and a custom results certificate. It’s a paw-some way to be an expert when it comes to your best fur-iend!

6 Easy Steps for the One-Minute Cheek Swab Test
Before you begin, please read these instructions carefully and complete the registration process at www.dnamydog.com. Ensure your dog does not eat or drink (other than water) for one hour before starting and has no contact with other dogs (water, toys, mouth) one hour before.
1) Remove the Sterile Swab from the packaging by holding on to the handle. Do not touch the tip.
2) Place the swab between the cheek and gum of the dog. Firmly rub the swab tip against inner surface of the dog’s cheek in a circular motion several times for 20 seconds.
3) Place the swab in the Donor Specimen Envelope. Do not seal the envelope yet.
4) Repeat steps 1-3, using the other sterile swab provided and swabbing the dog’s other cheek. Place the swab in the same Donor Specimen Envelope. Do not seal the envelope yet.
5) Allow the two sample swabs to air-dry in the unsealed envelope for 25 minutes before sealing.
6) Place sealed Donor Specimen Envelope in the supplied mailing envelope. The cheek cell samples are stable for several months without refrigeration.

I ordered the test to help determine the age of our rescue dog. We had a previous breed analysis completed, so we already knew his breed info. This test came back saying he was only one breed (Poodle, incorrect) with a genetic age of 1. We have had him 10 years and he was somewhere between 3-7 when we adopted him, absolutely ridiculous. DON'T BUY THIS TEST. It's a TOTAL waste of money.
Don’t buy. I bought this basically for the genetic age test but the breed identifier was included. Had already determined my dog’s breed through Embark. My dog is definitely Australian Shepherd, has the bobbed tail, floppy ears and spotted legs, however DNAMyDog says he’s Alaskan Malamute and greyhound. Embark said Australian Shepherd, cattle dog and border collie, which I agree with and they didn’t even require a photo of him, whereas DNAMyDog did. The vet thinks he’s around 5-6 yrs old yet this test says 3. Don’t believe any of it. Money thrown out the window.
I wish chewy would take this product off their website. Extremely misleading. Incorrectly determined genetic age of my dog. Waste of money. Contacted the company. No valid response.
