About this site

bestpetdnatests.com is owned and written by Matteo Pellegrini, a geneticist and the founder of ProsperK9, a whole-genome dog DNA test that appears in every comparison here. That is a conflict of interest and it is stated at the top of every comparing page rather than in a footer.

What the ownership does not change: every number on the site is read from the companies' own product pages and dated, the competitors' figures are quoted the way they state them, nothing is scored or ranked, and there are no affiliate links. The site earns nothing when you buy an Embark, Wisdom Panel or Basepaws kit. If you buy a ProsperK9 kit, the owner earns from the sale, as the disclosure says.

The site exists because the question “which dog DNA test should I buy” is usually answered by pages with star ratings and no sources. This one has sources and no stars.

Embark, Wisdom Panel, Basepaws and ProsperK9 and their logos are trademarks of their respective owners, shown here only to identify the products being compared. No endorsement by them is implied.

Hosting and analytics: the site uses Google Tag Manager for page-view analytics. It sets no advertising cookies of its own.
