The results of this one were way more fun for us!

He weighed in at 48.6 lbs last week and he's currently about 5.5 months young.

For anyone curious about the timeline with Wisdom Panel, I shipped out the test kit on the 12th, it arrived on the 19th (from PA to CA), and I just got the results this morning.

We were expecting Pittie and some other primary/dominant mix, but seems like she’s mostly Pittie! Doesn’t matter either way, we love her all the same.

My main attractor to the DNA test was for health and relatives. We got her from a shelter, so it would have been so cool to find a sibling so we could potentially learn more about her litter. Closest match we have so far is 19% shared DNA, so hoping for a close relative to come in the picture soon!

First three where kind of expected not in that order maybe

Just got a relative update from Embark and discovered my dog has had puppies!

I had an inkling but was still shocked to see these results! He is the absolute sweetest little guy, very affectionate but still independent. He was found as a stray in Queens, and we met him at an adoption event early this month and immediately knew we had to bring him home! Assumed he was a chi mix and maybe part fruit bat.

He's a compact 20lb and estimated to be about 9. Sweetest guy ever. Mostly deaf. Doesn't care about our cats and could take or leave other dogs, but loves people and social situations. Naps hard but acts like a puppy when it's time for a walk. Super affectionate but sometimes prefers to sleep in a different room. The best of everything.

Embark tests will arrive mid November! Who wants to make an early prediction?

Puppy to adult photos included!

Meet Willow! My cute lil shelter pup. She was 35.4 lbs when I got her on 10/1. She’s currently 47.5 🫠 pictures are in order from our first interaction. She’s 5 months old & just lost the rest of her baby teeth. Naturally I saved them in a bag lmao. Any guesses on what she is? I did an embark breed & health test.

Edit: some add’l info is her tail is sooooo long guys like I mean 15.5 inches long!

Perry (short for periscope 😉) is a 6 month old rescue. Other than really bold-looking belly stripes (instead of spots), he looks like a fairly standard brown mackerel tabby. We expected results to show mostly domestic/American shorthair with maybe a small percentage of Bengal at MOST lol…can anyone help me understand how 30% Norwegian Forest Cat makes any sense?

Possibly relevant context:
- He’s weirdly strong. I have video of him dragging a seventeen pound weighted blanket across my bed with his teeth, for funsies.
- He’s smart. When he gets bored with his toys, he finds ways to “combine” them with other toys to make it a new experience.
- He’s got insane energy levels, even for his age.
- He’s also not scared of ANYTHING.

Visually, though…what?? 😂😂

55 lbs very long legs. Tail is a lot like a border collie. Waiting on results!! We have been stuck in extraction stage with embark for a week.

We adopted our Belgian Malinois pup from a rescue who saved her and her siblings off the streets of Texas. We see her first sibling got adopted who is in the right of the results. We’ve always been curious about her dna results as she has her white collar and socks. Her other siblings don’t have much white at all besides their chests.

I’m very surprised about the Pitbull and Akita. We’ve had a few people guess Akita before, but most people can tell that her head and body is Malinois. We’ve had a feeling about the GSD though because her face kind of looks like an old
Man at times haha. (Pics are from when we first got her around 4 months old to now)

Getting results back within a week, but what are your guesses?

The rescue told me Malinois mix, no Malinois in the genetics… last photo for results. The wolf % is wild! Chow chow is where her red came in? She’s the best, 100% good girl. 8 years in Jan 💕🐕

This is our little Evie! We adopted her from a rescue 3 weeks ago. She’s around 2 years old and very very sweet and chill. She’s eager to be involved and is super affectionate. I was able to guess her top 3 breeds! She’s quite small at 12lbs.

Her super mutt is: poodle, beagle, and staffy. Laika is 1 year old and 28 lbs. The Yorkie and Jack Russell Terrier are pulling their weight. She has no poker face... mostly because her ears convey every emotion very clearly.

30.5% American Pitbull Terrier

25.9% Australian Cattle Dog

13% Russel-type Terrier

12.5% Australiam Shepherd

12.5% Supermutt (Poodle, Beagle, Staffy)

5.6% Yorkshire Terrier

Listed as an 18lb chihuahua mix. Knew she had pit in her from meeting her and bringing her home. So wild how genetics and size / appearance works!

The shelter told us she was a border collie mix.
I’m shocked 🫢

We adopted Buckley at 12 weeks and were told by his foster mum that he had staffy, and working dog......well kind of I guess! He was the runt (second last photo he's the bottom pup facing camera, they were about 6 weeks there and he wasn't even half the size of the rest of the litter!) and has got such a cheeky, stubborn, wildly energetic personality until he crashes and needs cuddles, and is SO SMART. Not surprising really!

She’s short and very stocky. Behold, my Great Dane mix! 🤣
