Detecting 225+ Breeds, Types and Varieties in a Mixed-Breed Dog

 

Wisdom Panel Professional is our gold standard genetic analysis for mixed-breed dogs. This test not only detects over 225 breeds, types and varieties that may be present in a mixed-breed dog, but it pre-screens for certain breed-related health risks, predicts the likely adult weight range of a puppy and offers a validated accuracy measure of 90%.*  

By understanding the various breeds' traits and histories, you may be able to recognize some of them in your mixed-breed dog.

Search the Wisdom Panel Breed Library by the official American Kennel Club (AKC) breed name, common names for breeds, behavioral trait, or size. The library contains detailed profiles of all dogs covered by Wisdom Panel Professional, printable breed profiles for easy reference, and downloadable desktop backgrounds.

 

*Accuracy was determined by average positive predictive value across breeds studied.

Breed Health
  • We are often asked about breed related illnesses. Many genetic diseases are rare and complex, with some diseases requiring multiple ancestors to pass on particular genes to cause disease. Other diseases are simply related to a single ancestor in a dog’s breed makeup.
  • Learning more about the history of breeds and any possible breed-related disorders can help you and your veterinarian develop a custom health and wellness plan for your dog.
  • For more insight into genetic issues that may affect particular breeds, we suggest you visit the Canine Inherited Disorders Database, a joint initiative of the Sir James Dunn Animal Welfare Centre at the Atlantic Veterinary College, University of Prince Edward Island and the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.
