Re: DNA Test
Wow, at least from the photos he seems so brindle. What were the results for coloration?

Re: DNA Test
He does have a lot of brindle, & his mom was completely brindle. His dad wasn't brindle at all though.

I would not have guessed his coat pattern based on those results.

Re: DNA Test
New Player in the Market of DNA Tests
I saw an advertisement for Orivet.
The Geno Pet 5.0 Test kit comes with breed identification, DNA health screening, and a health plan based on the DNA. Cost at the time of this post is $169.
I really had to search for it, but the breed list does contain the Dutch Shepherd.

Re: DNA Test
I'm late to the topic but I've just sent Demons wisdom panel away in the post, I bought it years ago but never got around to actually submitting it
When I get it back in a few weeks I'll post the results along with his bloedlijnen.nl working line dutch shepherd pedigree because it might be helpful to others on here! We might even finally get answers as to why my boy is so huge for a DS
I haven't posted in a long time so as a reminder this is demon (better known as dreamy deemy at home)

Re: DNA Test
I ordered Wisdom and Embark for Hondo. Waiting for the kits.
It will be interesting to see the evolution of the differences between the two companies.
When I did Radar - back when they first got the DS in the breed check - Radar was ~50/25/25 DS/Mal/GSD for Wisdom and 100% DS for Embark.

Re: DNA Test
Hondo weighed in a little over 25 lbs. at his last vet appointment.
He'll be 14 weeks old this Sunday.
I have not taken any height measurements, but he is already getting closer in size to Mustang.

Thank you so much
