If you have any doubts about the parentage of a litter, including the possibility that you may have a multiple sired litter, then a Dog Paternity Test can provide the answers you want.
Dog paternity testing is a very valuable tool, because it provides accurate breeding records. These records are a guarantee of the dog’s pedigree and ancestry and therefore enable breeders to offer purchasers DNA certified pedigrees, at the same time as building a sound reputation based on accept as true with and credibility.
Our Dog Paternity Test is a quick and easy way to appropriately decide the parentage of a dog, by measuring DNA markers. Each dog has 2 alleles at each DNA marker (loci), one of which is inherited from the dam (mother) and the other from the sire (father). Our test uses a profile of 16 genetic markers, or loci, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology to appropriately decide parentage.
Testing of the sire, the dam, and the progeny (puppy) is included in the price and, when all three are tested, we will be able to confirm parentage with a probability of more than 99.99%.
Additional sires or puppies can be tested for an extra £39 each. Please contact us if you require extra kits.
You may know who the mother is, but you will need to include both parents, because this makes testing much more powerful and leads to more accurate results. The mother’s sample is used to eliminate her half of the DNA contribution, reducing the incidence of a sire being falsely confirmed as the biological father.
If the dam is not available, our Dog Paternity Test can still be carried out, but it requires extended testing, for which we test an additional 12 genetic markers. We may also recommend extended testing in cases where the sires are closely related, brothers for example, because of the similarity between their DNA profiles. Please contact us for more information.
ACCURATE DOG PARENTAGE TEST: Our Dog Paternity Test is a quick and easy way to appropriately decide the parentage of a dog, by measuring DNA markers. Each dog has 2 alleles at each DNA marker (loci), one of which is inherited from the dam (mother) and the other from the sire (father). Our test uses a profile of 16 genetic markers, or loci, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology to appropriately decide parentage.
ADDITIONAL DOGS: Testing of the sire, the dam, and the progeny (puppy) is included in the price and, when all three are tested, we will be able to confirm parentage with a probability of more than 99.99%. Please contact us before ordering if you want to test additional sires or puppies, or if the potential sires are closely related.
WHY TEST THE MOTHER? You may know who the mother is, but you will need to include both parents, because this makes testing much more powerful and leads to more accurate results. The mother’s sample is used to eliminate her half of the DNA contribution, reducing the incidence of a sire being falsely confirmed as the biological father. Please contact us if the mother is not available for testing.
