Let customers speak for us
I was so excited to get the info on Millie. When I got her from Bother Wolf in Asheville, NC, we thought she was a Pitbull. I had decided to get a fourth dog, and my husband said that would be fine, but just no Pitbull. Well, what did I come home with?? A Pitbull. I wondered if she was truly a Pitty--there were things about her that looked like she might be a Staffy more than the Pitbull. I wanted a Staffy, but when I saw her, she was what I wanted to take home with me. Having her for almost a year and then finding out she was what I was wanting to begin with was wonderful--but I would have continued to love her no matter what! Thank you for the info and in a timely manner--Linda C
Prosper K9 is great to work with! The communication has been great and I cannot wait to see the results!
We don’t have a way to test the accuracy of the test, but the process was efficient and results were presented well. It was very interesting to see what breeds made up our rescue puppy!
A little slow but worth the wait
The kit was easy to use and I learned a lot about the puppy I had. The results explained the color markings and suspicions that I had about the puppy, She has no beagle in her but she happens to be one of the best dogs I have ever had. She is smart as a whip and learns very fast. I wouldn't trade her for a true beagle. I recommend this kit for anyone who wants to learn more about their pets origins
I got my dog from a kill shelter They did a good job at5 guessing what he was. But k9 HIT RIGHT ON THE HEAD THANKS
Got way more information than I was expecting. Detailed deed breakdown with dog tree. Health analysis of genetic predispositions for serious and benign conditions. Predictive dominant and recessive traits of potential offspring. Crazy amount of information..
Seems very accurate and detailed
I had questions that I emailed to this company, and the questions were answered immediately. I thank the people responsible for these replies.
Received report in 3 weeks. Was very pleased with results. Was what I expected, but needed proof because of places I go. Good info, great price.
Easy process from sample to signing up. Can see that it was received, now the wait. Funny, the only bad reviews are from people who simply don’t like or disagree with results😂. I know half my girls DNA so I’m excited to see the rest! As an ex-zookeeper and animal caretaker for 20+ years, I know all is not always as it appears!
Customer Reviews
It does take awhile to get results, but totally worth it! I have a rescue dog who is now my service dog, as well as a competitive athlete. Ethically I will retire him around age 10 but due to him being a rescued stray, I had no idea when I'll need to look at training his successor (it takes about 2 years of training). Now I know he's 3 years old. Looking forward to a nice long time with this partner by my side.
Haven’t received results
I have done the dog age test twice and I truly believe it was spot on and it’s great information to have when you don’t know when your adopted dog was born. Thank you!
Had age tests done for our 3 Amigos. The results were exactly what we thought for 2 of them and a surprise for the 3rd. Very cool.
Wow! I'm so glad we had Loki's DNA test done with Prosper K9. We sent in his buccul swab that was easy to obtain and mail in. That was for the "Dog Age and Personality' test. We received his test results in a PDF report. He was adopted, so we wanted to have his real age. His personality is on point! We couldn't be happier to have more insight into his true age to insure him and his personality to work on ongoing training with him. Thank you so much Prosper K9 for your wonderful product and professional service.
