New dog DNA test to determine breed
Our local news has had several stories on a Maryland company that has developed a new canine heritage DNA test that can determine breed composition of mutts. The company, MetaMorphix (also developed the pedigree DNA test AKC uses), says it can identify 38 different breeds from a cheek swab. The test will be available to the public in about a month, according to the press information.
