What Our Clients Have To Say

Very pleased with Paw Print Genetics in both the quality and experience of the staff and founders, as well as their sound methodology and best practices in DNA testing and profiling for animals. I have tried several other laboratories providing the same services, and Paw Print Genetics has the most accessible staff, easy to read and understand results, and excellent pricing.

I have never received such awesome service from friendly professional people!!!! I will never use another genetic testing service, these guys are THE BEST!!!

- Christine B.

I got my tests back with lightning speed. I was really hoping to see someday a place for one stop for the major genetic tests for my breed and I think you have accomplished that. I think your prices are reasonable and service wonderful and clear and easy to follow every part of the process from ordering the tests, getting the samples and reading the reports.

- Kate C.

I decided to try Paw Print Genetics with my latest Chinese Crested who needed testing and I was extremely impressed with the whole process - from ordering to results, much better service than the other company. I found just having them send out the proper test kits was a bonus, the almost $150 difference in the price & that the results are accepted by OFA made my choice very easy. I live in Canada & have to take a couple of extra steps in sending back the tests & Paw Print Genetics made it very easy by making sure I had all the correct paperwork for customs. For all my future testing, I will definitely be using Paw Print Genetics and I encourage everyone else to do so as well.

- Lesley A.

Customer service is AWESOME! FAST results, DM results back 2 weeks before [the other lab]. LOVE the online account for printing off certs when needed vs onetime piece of paper from OFA.
Love the shipping taken care of, just drop in mail after collecting samples.
I just cannot say how much I appreciate PPG! I won't ever go through OFA or universities for DNA testing again :)

- Brook M.

I couldn't be more impressed with a DNA lab than Paw Print Genetics!
I recently just discovered them and did my first DNA testing with them on a couple of breeding prospect puppies. They got my results in a timely manner, and when I had questions about them, Blake emailed me several times and explained things in detail in layman's terms so I could understand completely my results! I highly recommend this company for DNA testing on breeding dogs. Great job guys, and I salute you, Blake! Thanks for all of your help!

- Tracy W.

Love everything about this company and where they are going! Everyone is so nice and professional! Quality testing and great turn-around!

- Gayle H.

Extremely easy and quick process. We were kept in the loop the entire process. Even after we got our results back they made sure we were able understand the results and they ensured we were happy customers. I would recommend Paw Print to anyone looking to make sure their pet is healthy.

- Mike M.

After discovering Paw Print Genetics at an AKC dog show we decided to use them for our genetic tests. I had been looking at doing genetic screenings but found the genetic testing waters mirky and hard to navigate. Not so with Paw Print Genetics! This company excels in customer service and I found the process of ordering tests so very easy. In less then two weeks I had the results for William, our sire at Council House Goldens. I was able to call and talk to a HUMAN with the questions I had. Another point for customer service! This company is committed to providing exemplary service and will be our go to provider for genetic screening as we move forward in our breeding program. Thank you Lisa, Christina, and Casey

- Coleen G.

I just got the test results for the 8 tests ordered for my dog. It was remarkable how fast and trouble-free the whole process was! PPG's website is easy to navigate, and everyone was so helpful, whether in email or by phone. Thank you PPG.
