只要 $79.99,你就能在 Wisdom Panel 的網站訂購一套檢測組。套組內含說明、兩支 DNA 臉頰拭子,以及預付運費的寄送標籤。流程很簡單——只要你的狗狗不介意你快速在牠嘴裡操作一下即可。每次使用一支拭子,在臉頰內側與牙齦之間滾動 15 秒。拭子至少需要風乾 5 分鐘,這段時間你可以在線上啟用檢測,並填寫套組隨附的啟用確認號碼。拭子乾燥後,只要把所有物品重新包好並寄到實驗室即可。

我的狗狗 Finn 的血統樹,原來牠是一隻 Lhasa Poo!
Wisdom Panel 套組對於單純好奇自家狗狗基因組成的任何飼主來說,都是非常棒的工具。也許你領養了一隻狗,想知道牠由哪些品種組成;或許你好奇牠是不是純種犬,或是真正的設計犬種(兩種純種犬的混種)。如果你的狗狗還是幼犬,了解牠的品種也有助於預測體重及其他特徵。
如果你有興趣訂購套組,可以在這裡查看他們的網站。也別忘了確認 Wisdom Panel 的 National Swab-a-thon 是否即將來到你的城市;在活動現場只要 $30,就能為你的狗狗進行 DNA 拭子採樣!用這麼划算的價格揭開愛犬的過去,真的很不錯!

Will the test tell the dog's age?
I've heard that the test is unreliable, which might be true, but from what I've seen, it's pretty decent. I thought my rescue was a mutt because a lot of "pit bulls" are, but she turned out to be full-bred American Staffordshire Terrier. I did some in-depth research, and it seems logical from all angles that she could be a purebred. So, if you actually have a purebred, this test will tell you!
Hi Corinne, the test is not able to tell the dog's age - maybe one day it will because that would be very useful!
