DNA TESTING
Please note as for all health testing the DNA tests and profiles only have to be performed on dogs that you are breeding from in your kennels and should be completed prior to submitting the litter notification.
DNA PROFILING
DNA profiling (aka genotyping - which is not a test for breed type/composition) requires that a mouth swab is taken from your dog and sent to an approved laboratory for testing.
The Equine Parentage & Animal Genetic Services Centre (EPAGSC) based at Massey University is Dogs New Zealand preferred supplier for DNA testing. Click here to order.
