Ok readers, many of you guessed what type of dog Molly is and the results are in from the Canine Heritage. The paperwork originally said the test is
determined to be around 87% accurate of higher for breeds in their
database so the results could have some inaccuracy. Too, if they don’t
have a specific breed type in their database, the DNA can be from a more
“ancient” breed that was part of the newer breed’s makeup.

With that said, Molly was determined to be the following:

No breeds noted in the “Primary” or “Secondary” categories, but 4 listed
in the “In the Mix” category.

In the Mix:
* Chow Chow
* Border Collie
* Collie
* Labrador Retriever

Molly’s test was purchased from www.CanineHeritage.com The cost was $119.95. The company has a over 100 breeds intheir database, and the information on the site says they will continue
to add more breeds.

It takes only a few days for the test kit to arrive after ordering, and
from the time you send in the sample (to a lab in California) until you
receive the certificate, the process is around 6-8 weeks. Our wait was
closer to 8 weeks due to the number of samples they received after
Christmas. The customer service rep I spoke with mentioned that they
sold a lot of tests as Christmas presents this year so they expected a
spike (and a little longer processing time) in January and February.
