First of all read the instructions thoroughly. Most of these dog DNA tests have very detailed instructions which need to be followed in order to get reliable results. You don’t want to contaminate the cheek swab with your own DNA, something that is very easy to do. Basically you just brush the inside of your dog’s check to get the swab wet.
Second of all you need to read package and return kit properly. Some of these kits do not need to have a cooling pack with it, but you still need to properly close any tubes or kit tests.
Lastly, once you get the DNA results back, you should share the results with your veterinarian. This helps your vet determine if your dog is susceptible to any possible genetic diseases.
One of the best kits on the market for doing this is the BioPet dog DNA test.
With the Biopet you can have your DNA test results in three weeks. It can also send the results via e-mail right away after processing.
