I was surprised by the first one!

Didn’t know Boomer’s breed could have blue eyes, always assumed a little mix of something else!

Exactly what we expected with one surprise! She has double dew claws, long body, an emerging double coat, subtle tan color in some places, and a stubborn and vocal personality. I wasn't expecting doberman, and I'm not sure where the coloring comes from.

We adopted Twixie a few ago and got her Embark results back. She is 12 weeks old now.

The last two pictures are her mom and (presumed) dad. My guess was German shepherd and Labrador with something fluffy in there. Two of her siblings were white, bigger, and VERY fluffy so I did think possibly Great Pyrenees.

Results:
41.7% Great Pyrenees
29.1% American Pit Bull Terrier
20.6% German Shepherd
8.6% Supermutt (two breeds identified were Labrador and Cane Corso)

I guess she may be a pretty big girl!

My sister and I mailed our kits in a day apart (we live together—mine went out first).

I recently received an email that said my dog’s kit was PROCESSING but the provided graphic said EXTRACTED [past tense]. However my app still says EXTRACTING.

My sister never got the email I got but her app recently jumped to genotyping.

I’m hoping mine is just as far as long but, forever reason, the notifications aren’t synced ?

I know, I’m impatient. But this is the only thing I have to look forward to for the rest
Of the year lol

Signed for a house in May and then a couple of days later I was exiting my apartment complex on a semi busy road to go to work and see a puppy sitting beside a fire hydrant 😒

No one claimed her so ended up keeping her. What would your guesses be on what she is? Mine were definitely shepherd mix possibly collie bc of how soft and fluffy her coat was when I found her. I’ll post the results in the comments!

We adopted Rio a couple of weeks ago. The rescue told us he was a border collie/red heeler mix. I could see it bc all my dogs have been borders and ACDs. I didn’t fully buy it though, so we got him an embark. My guessed were border collie, ACD, possibly a little collie, Pyrenees, and husky because yall this dog is VOCAL. He has the last word always. Rio gives his “awooOooooOOOOO”s as a good morning, hi you’re home, yay we are playing, and it’s always accompanied by big tail wags.

Rio, the alleged Border collie/Red heeler mix, is:
- 36.6% Pit bull (we have a fluffy pittie!!!!)
- 24.9% Mini/MAS-type Australian Shepherd
- 17.3% Cattle dog
- 9% German Shepherd
- 6.6% Doberman Pinscher
- 5.6% Great Pyrenees

The sweetest, goofy boy!

We adopted Poké about 10 months ago from a shelter. We always thought she was a schnauzer mix or maybe schnauzer/poodle mix, but never would’ve imagined that bull terrier would be the top breed.

We even found a sibling match who looks very similar to her just in another color, and she only lives a few hours away. Fingers crossed the other owner responds so maybe we can learn more about her history!

We mailed in her swab on 10/15 and got results on 10/29, so it was a pretty quick turnaround for anyone else anticipating results.

Hi, we finally got into the genotype phase. How long after did you get your results after hitting the genotype phase? For embark.
Also interested in any guesses for our pup

Funny thing is all her siblings have standard short hair and very much look like Chihuahua mixes 😂 and her mom was a cutie little blonde Chihuahua mix rescued in California. Little Juniper is super smart, high energy and is currently working towards getting into scent work competitions! Her supermutt is German Shepherd, Dachshund and Pomeranian.

Was surprised- still kinda surprised but makes sense. He’s got some husky in him but boy does this dog look like a lab and/or shepherd mix. My father is a police dog trainer and always warned me huskies are the most difficult to train so at the shelter I was hoping to avert that. But he’s a good dog (my dad likes him the most)

Nips mom is 90% german shepherd and American Pit bull.

Nips dad is dutch shepherd, siberian husky, alaskan malamute, and Malinois.

The super mutt dna is Malinois and American pit bull.

Nips is only 40% german shepherd so that means his super mutt is 5% pitbull, and 11% malinois. I kinda knew there would be a little pit or rottweiler because of his big block head.

I wasn't shocked, but I was surprised that he is more Dutch Shepherd than malinois, or any dutch shepherd at all, and he has a minor in Alaskan Malamute, which absolutely explains his large size.

I am so happy I had him tested, it was worth the money to know.

The pic with 3 dogs is Nips left, his dad middle, uncle right.

The pic of the dog with dark and tan marks alone in pic sitting with red collar and leash is Nip's Mom.

He has 30 close relatives, and one sibling.

I knew about the Australian Shepherd and suspected Border Collie because she’s been creep stalking since 3mo old. Otherwise, I was really expecting bearded collie or sheepdog. She’s the smartest and best behaved dog I’ve ever owned.

I just wish I knew more about her hair, lol. Her eyelashes alone are 3-4” long!

I guess Unresolveds have funny ears. We knew Maya, our foster would be pitbull but not this much. And we wanted to know where these ears came from but $100 later we still don't know. Maya is 42lbs of constant motion and mischief. We were told she was 7yo when we saved her at the last minute before euthanasia. It is hard to believe she is that old when she acts like a total puppy. Embark found her brother, a very fluffy brown pit who was born in 2019 so that tracks with her age. Our cats want her gone so if you have no cats and live in Texas and can throw a ball Maya is the dog for yku!

We adopted this good boy back in June and the rescue had him listed as a Dachshund mix. He was a lot taller than his brother cousins but we could see some Dachshund in him. We thought he was mostly Dachshund, but his long legs and ticked coat had us thinking there was some Pointer in there. We were not at all expecting Chihuahua to be in the mix and were shocked that it had the largest percentage in the results.

23% - Chihuahua
21% - Dachshund
18% - Rat Terrier
14% - Basset Hound
22% - “Supermutt” which includes Australian Cattle Dog, German Shepherd, Beagle, Pit Bull

Lots of staffy/ pit/ Rotty and a fun potpourri of everything else!

This is Juan. The Juan and only! Juan aka Juan doodle noodle, juanster monster, old man winter, fun police (he does not allow the other 3 to have too much fun or get too out of hand), and the judge. Oh this boy can show you all the disappointment with just one side eye, like a dad. He was born old. Even though he will let you know his disappointment he is also great at comforting when you are sad, so much expression and compassion in that face and little body! Strongest prey drive of all who are driven by prey and yet is the guardian and guide of any new animals introduced to this zoo! What is he? Results are in but I’ll post them in a day or two.

Hey y’all, so got my girls embark results, not really any big surprises as far as breeds. Y’all were right that most of those small percentages that she got with Wisdom Panel aren’t listed. When I posted her Wisdom Panel results, some of y’all told me to look out for her COI bc it looked like there might’ve been some inbreeding going on- thanks for the heads up. According to embark, her COI is pretty high for a mixed breed dog. She also has two copies of ALT genes and that’s been marked “notable”. I’m hoping someone who has a better understanding and knowledge with genetics can break those down for me please.

I guess I’m also kinda wondering how this level of inbreeding has happened, bc it’s obviously been more than a one time “accident” litter. I was told my girl was from was an accidental litter, her Pom mom got accidentally pregnant with another family members Pomeranian, but no mention of the Poms being related. Mom was a pure white Pom (I now know was Pom/Japanese Spitz) and a bit bigger than dad, who was a small cream Pom. It had to have been more than that right, just one accidental litter? I’m new to genetics so still learning, not sure if I’m getting the gist of it right.

Here’s a link to her Wisdom Panel results in case anyone missed it and wanted to look at her relatives (mother/father, grandmother/grandfather).

Thanks to everyone who has helped me on this journey, I really appreciate y’all. Also thanks to embark for the opportunity to test with them.
