EMbark DNA

Why DNA test?

As a breeder, DNA testing for dog diseases is crucial because it allows them to identify potential carriers of genetic diseases within their breeding stock, enabling you to make informed breeding decisions to minimize the risk of producing puppies with inherited health issues, ultimately contributing to healthier breeding lines and improved dog welfare; essentially, it helps you proactively prevent the passing on of potentially serious genetic conditions to future generations. We have currently tested 45 Presas as of 2024.

*All of our dogs have been Embark tested & you can find their info on their personal page*
