5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely some surprises!

And oh boy, there were some surprises!I adopted Leela from a rescue and they had told me her mom was full blooded Blue Heeler, so the catahoula checks out. But every vet I have taken her to has assumed a golden retriever mix. So imagine our surprise when she didn't have any golden DNA! As a side note, I find that supermutt combination to be hilarious. 😂I had met Lilith's parents at the time of adoption. Both were labs, but outside dogs. And obviously the male lab was not, in fact, her father. The drama! 😬 I've had vets in the past ask if she is part Great Dane due to her size (almost 100 pounds when she was younger) and her facial features. So that was a shock, too!Overall, I'm very happy I got them both tested. With Leela, it does raise some questions since goldens tend to have more incidence rates of leukemia than other dog populations, and she doesn't have any golden DNA. Either way, her vet will be intrigued by these results - almost as much as I was!
5.0 out of 5 stars The only DNA test that checks for wolf DNA
This is the only test on the market (to my knowledge) that checks for wolf DNA. It also gives a "wolfiness" score and discusses what score most dogs get <5 points indicated wold DNA from hundreds of years ago. I had two dogs that I got from the animal shelter in 2014, told they were GSDs and after 6 months with no progress any tried to understand why they behaved the way they did I had realized they had wolf in them.......ALL OF THE SO CALLED EXPERTS that I consulted said they did not.....So I recently had the DNA checked and both had 25% grey wolf....a blinding flash of the obvious.....they wolfiness score was very high indicated very rent wolf DNA.....so it all fit. If you have a mixed breed northern breed dog (eskimo dog, husky, malamute, etc) and you want to check their DNA use EMBARK -- it checks for wolf;
5.0 out of 5 stars SO MUCH FUN! So much useful information. So surprising to learn what our pup is!
This was SOOO MUCH FUN! We were surprised to learn that our new puppy was not a chocolate lab mix. There was no lab in him in matter of fact.I debated which one to buy just the DNA test or the one with the health and traits. I chose the DNA only because we seemed to have a very healthy puppy. There was nothing that was causing us alarm.To use:I simply swabbed my puppy's cheeks very well. Slid it in the vial. Did what it told me to do.I dropped it in the prepaid box/mailer and dropped it in the mail.Within days, Embark sent me an email that stated they received his sample. They told me it would take about a month and a half for the results. I thought that was going to be it. Wait a month and receive the results.In about a week or less, I received the first email saying they were starting the process. We got excited because we were going to find out what our puppy was. Anyone who saw him said he didn't look like a chocolate lab. We would say "well, that is what we were told but we are having his dna tested.".Another week or so, we were sent an email saying that they were moving on to the next step. I wish I saved the emails for the exact wording, but I did not.Another week and they were almost finished.One last email to tell us that their scientists were checking the results by hand. The results will be ready very shortly. The joke in the house was that we had a group of scientists working on our pup's DNA.Then yesterday, I received a text and an email stating the results were in!!! We were so excited. I have been checking the web page, it felt like every hour for the last month.Upon clicking the link, it gave us choices if we wanted to play a guessing game, watch a video or just find out. As a family we decided we wanted to play the guessing game. We knew from the information they gave that there were 4 breeds in our puppy. The first choice in the game it gave was- Doberman. We said no. He isn't Doberman. He doesn't look at all like a Doberman. We clicked false to learn he was 50% Doberman. We laughed because we didn't see it. Another breed came up. We thought definitely he had some of this in him. People were suggesting it. Nope. More laughter. Pit Bull? We have had other pit bulls, we thought at first there might be pit bull in him. 25% pit bull. More laughter and told yas! Then the surprises! Great Pyrenees? Absolutley not, we said. He doesn't have long hair or anything. He is 12% Great Pyrenees. Lastly, Australian Shepherd? I kind of thought of this because there were Australian shepherds at the place we got him and he looked similar but not the hair. Sure enough he was about 12% Australian Shepherd! No lab at all in him! We all had a very good laugh.We knew our puppy was from a certain state. Here, you can see other dogs who have had their DNA tested. It pulled up 2 other dogs that were similar to ours from the same state. Because of how close the DNA match was, they are probably immediate family.Accuracy? We started reading about the different breeds. We were familiar with the pit bull already and the coloring and his chest seem pit bullish. Doberman? The ears and height and body. Great Pyrenees? He has a back do claw that we had already researched before hand and Great Pyrenees was a breed that had them. Australian Shepherd? We believe the eyes are theirs. He has beautiful eyes. The other thing I laughed about was our pup has made a game out of dropping a ball down the stairs and fetching it. Sure enough, one of the breeds when bored will make their own games up. Dobermans are very smart. This puppy learned to open a closet door for shoes, he just pulls on the bathrobe hanging out the door every so little.5 stars:I know this is a longer review, but I wanted to share how we thought our pup was a chocolate lab and wasn't at all. That knowing what he was at first we were like No way is he a Doberman until we started researching. We pulled up a Doberman with his ears not pinched and it looks like our pup. We can see traits of the different breeds in our pup. It is a wonderful tool to learn about the puppy. A wonderful tool to know what to expect from a breed therefore how to train. Each of the dogs (but one, I think) are job oriented dogs. We know that we have to give our dog jobs for him to be happy. We know that every breed is an active dog. We know we have to walk him and exercise him a lot to keep him healthy, strong, and well behaved. Knowing what our dog is, is a great tool!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Mystery solved
This made a fabulous Christmas gift. We have long wondered what breeds were in our dog and people always ask, but we only knew her mom's breed for certain. Ordered the kit in early November and waited until my partner was at work to swab the dog. Directions were super easy to follow and everything was well labeled. The dog and I collected the sample and mailed it in. Setting up the profile on the website was easy, and we found the emails updating us every step of the way to be extremely helpful. Got the results in plenty of time for Christmas. Took bets from the whole family and did a breed unwrap- and no one guessed 100%! Super glad we did this, as it explained so many questions we have had about our dog!
5.0 out of 5 stars Surprising results
I adopted my dog at 12 weeks old from The Humane Society. They said he was a lab mix and I was curious what he was mixed with. My vet said it’s obvious he’s a lab/pit mix and a Great Dane breeder said she could see some Great Dane in him. I was surprised to get his results back as 100% American Pitbull Terrier! He doesn’t look like any full bred pitbull I’ve ever seen and he’s taller than most and lanky as opposed to short and stalky. He’s 80 lbs at a year old and may get a little bigger according to the vet but not much. I got the results back fairly quickly, within a few weeks, and they kept me updated through email during the whole process. I was surprised by the results and kind of wondering how accurate it is but had a great experience!
4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful
Easy to use, easy to mail! What’s more exciting than finding out stuff about your dog!
5.0 out of 5 stars Fun for our girl

Product and customer service
I was so impressed with the customer service I received. I received the kit on time and carried out the swab and sent it off. Unfortunately, my swab got stuck enroute and I reached out to Embark who helped me track it and they reached a decision to resend a kit at no cost. Kit arrived in no time and I sent it off. Embark informs you when the swab has arrived, swab extracted, etc. So at every stage you are notified which helps build up the excitement. I won't spoil the rest however the results were very interesting and what surprised me most was the accuracy and rhe detailed breakdown. They also share information of close relatives and the picture of my dog's sibling was a spitting image of her. Forgot to say the only information I provided was my dog's name and swab as I purposely did not share pics or her breed type so it was amazing that through science I was provided with mind blowing results. I definitely recommend this product.
Great product!
Great product to identify your dog’s true breed even for pure breed dogs as there might be to 5-10% of another breed. I also added on the additional health tests and report on embarkvet.com which was very useful to learn more about my pet. Embarkvets customer service is also great my kit got shipped out in time and results back exactly as they promised 4-6 weeks after they received the kit.Regarding shipping with Bolo I did not experience any issues product came on time product was not out of date everything was smooth.
