The dog DNA test breeders trust

"A great tool"
"I use Embark to test all my potential breeding dogs. It is a great tool to make the right breeding decisions. I encourage other breeders to use Embark - the more we know about our dog's health, the better breeding decisions we can make to improve our breed."

"Making me a better breeder"
"Embark has been a crucial component in making me a better breeder. As a breeder of Australian Shepherds, there are many genetic health issues and color/trait genetics to consider before pairing two parents together. Having this knowledge can help provide a healthy puppy to an anxiously awaiting family and change their whole life!"
