After 20 years of research and genotyping more than 3 million dogs and cats, we’ve developed DNA tests that give pet parents the knowledge to make smarter choices at every stage of life for their pet.

We’ve dedicated years to building the world’s largest reference database for both dogs and cats, supporting detection of 350 and 70 breeds, respectively. Last year, we released a new dog breed detection system, and based on rigorous and controlled tests using thousands of purebred samples, it's over 98% accurate—the most accurate available on the market.

Our dog DNA tests screen for genetic conditions with up to 210 heath tests and reveal the “why” behind your dog’s physical features with over 35 trait tests. Our newest product, Complete for Cats, screens for genetic risks in cats with over 45 health tests, identifies feline blood type and has over 25 trait tests.

We’ve recently launched Relatives, our newest feature for dogs, supported by the largest pet genetic network ever to be assembled. Find your dog’s family—Relatives reveals genetic relationships for more than 99.9% of pet parents’dogs.

We're excited to share the science behind our tests and answer any questions that you may have about them and what they mean for modern pet care. So, ask away!

About us: Becca Foran, head of R&D at Wisdom Panel Bio: After earning my PhD in genomics from Oxford University, I spent a decade building products that helped women make informed health choices based on their genetics and clinical metrics. Now at Wisdom Panel, I lead a team of data scientists, veterinarians and geneticists building the world's most accurate pet DNA tests. Ask me about: Lessons coming from human DNA to pet DNA.

Jason Huff, senior scientist of computational biology at Wisdom Panel. Bio: After earning a PhD from the University of California, San Francisco, I studied genomics as a postdoctoral fellow and later ran a computational core facility at the University of California, Berkeley. Before joining Wisdom Panel in 2020, I worked at Ancestry as a staff scientist in bioinformatics. Ask me about: Applying the latest genomic science to improve pet lives.

Casey Knox, manager of veterinary genetics at Wisdom Panel. Bio: After receiving my doctorate of veterinary medicine (DVM) degree from Oregon State University, I practiced in both small animal and mixed animal hospitals until joining Wisdom Panel in 2013. These days, I contribute to research and collect data from pet parents through sample curation and community science. I take special interest in the human-animal bond, how dogs and cats contribute to cultures around the world, immune and endocrine disease, and behavior. Ask me about: Dog and cat breeds and how pet parents can help in genetic research.

Ryan Miglavs, senior product designer at Wisdom Panel. Bio: I designed my first app at age 9, but mostly focused on a liberal arts education and ended up dropping out of college to become a professional magician. A wild and winding road brought me back to designing and coding, and a love of pets and science brought me to Wisdom Panel in 2019, where I’ve had the pleasure to learn about dog and cat genetics from the smartest and nicest scientists and vets in the world. I work hard to share their science with you in a smart, easy-to-use, award-winning product that helps you learn about your furry family and discover their relatives. Ask me about: How design turns science into useful products for pet parents

Will be answering questions until 2 pm PT so get them in!!!

Proof: Here's my proof!
