    The most remarkable thing just happened! Using Wisdom Panel, I was able to find out my dog's birthday and that he has almost an identical brother! ...The resemblence is incredible.

    We learned he's mostly herding breeds, and he also tested positive for a gene that gives him adverse reactions to some medications. Told our vet immediately!

    Knowing her breed composition allowed me to better understand certain behaviours, and put together a training program that would fit her personality.
