Worth the price. Easy to use and get results in a few weeks.

Great kit. Easy to understand directions, Swab the dog's cheek and send it off to be tested. The account lets you guess what you think the breeds will be while you are waiting for the results. Shows you dogs that have similar DNA. My dogs DNA matched who we suspected her father to be. We did find out that her mother must have not been full husky because she also received a little bit of German shepherd from her mom mixed with the Husky. Even predicted her full grown size, much smaller than we originally thought since we learned her dad had some miniature Australian in him, not just the full size.

It was easy to collect and submit a sample for testing, there was great communication throughout the process, and the results were fun and unexpected. It took longer than I thought it would to receive the results, but Embark kept me informed via email at each stage of the testing.Once the results were in, there was good information about each breed and easy ways to share results with friends and veterinarians. Embark then suggested upgrading (for an additional cost) to learn more about health insights (no additional sample required and they provided a promo code for $50 off).

Best kit to check DNA, I have tried others but this kit is better.

Embark dog DNA test is excellent. It has always been accurate unlike the test kit sold and done in Canada. It’s worth it to pay more for accuracy.

Fun! We thought this shelter dog was mostly chocolate lab because her color and personality of being stubborn -- which they are known for! Only 10% lab! 90% lots of other breeds. I've done more DNA test on other dogs. They said a lot of mutt. This test was more thorough. Fun!

This company was recommended to me by two people. I tried it for my adopted chichuahua mix. Embark was very helpful with making sure the application and sample was correct before submitting. They are efficient and thorough. The sent emails updating me every step of the way. The results were a wealth of information on all of their findings with detailed explanations. I’m very happy they were able to satisfy my curiosity and I will definitely recommend them to others parents who are curious.

First time I used a product like this product. Easey to use and compared to the other brands not a bad price. However, one has to read what you as an owner wished to know about your pet. Different brands contain different information. I just wanted her DNA. I can't say it was a quick process getting the information back, but the company is very good about emailing you as to the status of your purchase. I would recommend this product to others.

Finding out more about your pet is so exciting. Embark not only reported what her DNA revealed. I found out about generational DNA of her ancestors. There were suggestions about her health. Her siblings and family were listed. It was fun to see her family line and I even messaged a few doggie parents to comment on their pet. The hardest part of ordering a DNA kit is anticipating the results arrival. We received ours much faster than I expected. There are fun surveys and questionaires to do. You can upload pictures of your pet. There are also moments when reading through "traits" that I thought "Oh, so that's why she does that". Before your results arrive take a guess. There is a fun little game where you try to guess your pets breed(s).

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 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 Amazon I did not experience any issues product came on time product was not out of date everything was smooth.

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!!!
