DNA Test for Dogs: Discovering Mixed Breed Ancestry
Crédito de la imagen
Owning a mutt is advantageous for a few reasons. They’re outbred dogs so they usually won’t have any of the breed specific health issues common to purebred dogs. They are numerous, and much cheaper than a certified full blooded animal, and they are often extremely well-adjusted pets that make for grateful companions. However, you don’t get the added benefit of extensive breed history or managed expectations due to your wide breadth of knowledge concerning a particular animal bloodline.
The other less tangible drawback is your own curiosity. Owning a mixed dog breed often leads to a lot of speculation. You’re always wondering whether that short snout is a sign of a pug or a bulldog. Is that curved bushy tail more reminiscent of a huskie or a retriever? Luckily, the answers to these frustrating questions have been available since 2007 and are becoming increasingly affordable to purchase.
Estamos hablando, por supuesto, de pruebas de ADN para perros. Durante los últimos 6 años, varias corporaciones veterinarias han estado ofreciendo pruebas de sangre o de algodón que ofrecen determinar la historia hereditaria de su cachorro por una tarifa nominal. Estas pruebas no reclaman el 100% de precisión, pero ofrecen suficiente
exactitude to clear up any dinner table debates about a mixed dog breed.
El jugador principal en el juego de la determinación de la raza es realmente una compañía del caramelo. ¿No es eso dulce? Mars Incorporated, fabricante de barras de Marte, Snickers, M & M's y Vía Láctea -todas las cuales matarán irónicamente a un perro- también posee una división de cuidado de mascotas muy grande llamada Mars Veterinary. Mars Veterinary tiene un producto llamado el Wisdom Panel. Para los precios que comienzan alrededor de 60 dólares, puede pedir un kit de recolección de muestra del panel de sabiduría para encontrar la raza de su perro. El panel entonces identificará la ascendencia de su perro hasta sus bisabuelos.
It works by looking at your dog’s DNA and identifying certain genetic markers that match an established database of those same markers which appear in other dog breeds at different frequencies. The greater the number of markers, the more accurate the test. Since Wisdom Panel has been doing it the longest and has the largest database, they are assumedly the industry leader for this process.
While the information is fascinating, it serves little more than an informational and entertainment purpose. You can’t use these genetic analyses to determine potential health issues for your pet, nor does it serve any other particularly practical purpose. It’s just to sate curiosity and fuel conversations. It’s basically a novelty purchase for pet lovers, and because we love our useless novelties, it’s a popular one too.
Once again, these tests are basically just for fun. No medical information can really be inferred, and you won’t be able to certify your dog as purebred, (that can only be done an official kennel club, and it isn’t cheap.) However, you definitely can use these test to settle a silly argument or bring up a bit of interesting water cooler talk at your earliest given opportunity.
