Since a litter can have different dads, are all pups going to test as having the same DNA or will they differe by the Dad?

The answer is NO; not all puppies would have the same bloodlines if they were sired by different fathers. The Wisdom Panel would be able to recognize this. The puppies would simply be half brothers/sisters. There's no such thing as the fathers "mixing their DNA" with other puppies.

I think you should consult with Wisdom Panel. I can't really answer that question. I would think the DNA would be different because of the puppies having different fathers. As I said I am not an expert.

I really don't know because I was trying to find out the history of the stray dog I adopted. Wisdom Panel was not helpful at all!

Each pup inherits half of its DNA from the mother and half from the father. So if two pups have the same mother, but different fathers, half of their DNA will be different.

I think it should differ by the dad. If you go to the Wisdom Panel website, you should be able to see sample reports.

Yes. I never thought of using it for a new puppy, but I don't see anything wrong with it. Good luck and congrats on your new puppy. :D

No, this specific diaper is for female dogs. You will need to get one designed especially for male dogs. The specific company that makes this diaper for males calls it a PoochPant Male Dog Wrap

According to the Wisdom Panel website, the 2.0 identification DNA test kit has replaced the Wisdom Panel MIXED BREED test kit. Our dog was definitely a mixed breed guy, and our regular test kit identified all of them. It's all very well done and worth the cost.Hope this helps.

Yes. Which means you have to be aware of which dog is live so you don't correct the wrong one

Not really because they give you two swabs and you are supposed to include them both to send back to the lab. You will have to purchase a kit for each dog.

I was told that my dog was part Maltese and part Basset Hound. The test confirmed that, but also noted that there was some Scottish terrier also. It was quick and efficient!

depends if background dna pictures and dna itself says to what degree rotty is in there. They send a readout telling you about the dog, parents and grandparents. Mine I was suprised to see- pit bull, german shephard and great pyrenese, so it's just a chance you would take if it's not purebred. Wish you luck and wish I could be of more help.

It should. I have had it for a year or so, and My pet is a labrador/dingo mutt and many have told me she looks like she's mixed w/shephard too.

All dogs would detect the oder. The reaction of individual an dog would vary. Many would start a search behavior, others not. Many dogs will peruse skunk scent for example. Although probably not a wise choice, skunks are not considered preditors by dogs. I would not recommend this product as repellent for dogs. It actually may have just the opposite effect.

I was able to use a combination of a DNA test and photo of my dog to get past rental restrictions. The DNA test showed 30% Pit Bull (2 breeds - Staffordshire and Bulldog) and 30% Cocker Spaniel with some Golden Retriever and Papillon making up the rest. Might not work for everyone and my dog doesn't look like a pit unless you look close (face/forehead only...body is very not-pit bull). But in my case it helped. Sometimes even just indicating that you have a DNA test showing your dog is not a restricted breed or small percentage is enough to get you past the obstacle.

You trained your dog to use a litter box? I'm sorry I can not answer this question.

I would think if you were having twins and result was girl then it's predicting two girls, where as if you get a boy result you could either be having a boy and a girl,or two boys. I think it tests for presence of male hormone.

I'm not sure what the differences are, but the 2.0 kit specifically says it can be used with mixed breeds, and that's what we used for our Blue Heeler / Lab mix. I think the mixed breed kit may be an older product.

The test will say if the dog is a purebred. If your dog is registered then it is a purebred but if you aren't confident that the person you got your dog from may not be honest as to its parents then a DNA test would put your mind at rest in knowing it is pure especially if you plan on breeding them to sell, etc.

it depends of the litter you use, my smells only if the litter is neglected, once it is scooped, no problem.

We have 2 dogs, have not had that happen. Will let you know if it does happen and will be back to answer the question.
