A heads up on Diego's health

Jane discovered that Diego had inherited a genetic health condition that meant it was very likely he would become blind as he got older.

Progressive Retinal Atrophy, PCRD

PRA is a retinal disease that causes progressive, non-painful vision loss. This type of PRA leads to difficulty seeing at nighttime, before eventually affecting daytime vision as well.

218 variants not detected

A veterinarian's recommendation

While there’s no cure for Diego’s condition, a vet suggested that a companion dog could help him through it. So they adopted Dixie. But when she saw Dixie’s Embark results, Jane found the biggest surprise yet…

A long-lost sister!

Embark’s Relative Finder revealed that Diego and Dixie are actually full siblings! Though they may be from different litters, Diego and Dixie have the same mom and dad.

"Our dog found her passion"

“We have been able to tailor Bandit’s training and exercise regime much better to suit her needs now that we know she is composed of primarily working breeds. Our dog found her passion in scent work and has been much happier since.”

"So grateful"

"One of my dogs has a hereditary issue. Embark notified me immediately before completing the rest of the tests. I took Allie to the vet, unknown health issues were fixed and she is now on preventative treatment (prescription dog food). So grateful!"

    Great peace of mind

    we all may be able to guess the breed of our beloved pet, but for those mix breeds, this is a great little tool to use. Yes, is it 100 percent? No, but its dang close and it is meant to be used as a referance tool to help with all types of questions and concerns you may have.

    We are glad we did this

    This is a wonderful test.

    We were able to find out our boy is a huge conglomerate of puppy types.

    This is the second time we’ve used them and will do so in the future

    Thank you.
