Now we know....

Post by kingalls »

A few weeks ago, I won a BioPet DNA kit on eBay. I swabbed Shiloh and sent it in. It took about 3 weeks but today we got the results! Some of the newbies on the site probably aren't familar Shiloh's background. In a nutshell, she adopted us by taking refudge in our backyard about 8 years ago. She was about 3 months old per the vet. I have attached the documentation from BioPet - it's a zip file because it has about 5 files and I can only attach one file to a post. One of the files shows the many breeds that they have in their database. In case you can't open the attachments...here's what the first page says:
Level 1 Over 75% of the DNA found in your dog is from the breed listed.....most mixed breed dogs will not show any breeds under Level 1 unless the dog has a purebred parent....
It goes on to list another 4 levels.

I always knew she was chow! =D= What other breed would find the most beautiful and best garden backyard in your town as their forever home?! BTW, her BFF confirmed it with me back at Ladies' Day. It was something the two discussed... I was told. :)
