In honor of Veterans Day, we're highlighting a special dog who recently graduated from the Shelter to Soldier program and serves Jessica, USMC veteran, as her psychiatric service dog. Our partners at Shelter to Soldier tell us that DNA testing can be a game-changer for dogs like Wagner. Knowing a dog's genetic makeup helps tailor their training, so that they can excel at tasks that are crucial for assisting veterans with specific needs. Thank you to our nation's veterans for their service.

51% Bichon Frisé. 49% Shih Tzu. 100% Good Boy. Nice to meet you, Lando!
We made a huge mistake 🤯 Okay technically maybe it wasn’t our fault, but we are mind blown this morning! Last year, Jillian and I got our first pup, Lando. We were told he was a Shih-poo and would grow to ~11-14 pounds. By his first birthday in July, little guy was pushing 19-20 pounds, but I attributed that to his rigorous weightlifting routine 💪🏼 and didn’t really care. He’s been the best dog, and we love him more than I knew a person could love a dog. But then we completed an Embark Veterinary DNA test (shoutout Ashley Pochick). We were shocked to learn that not only is Lando NOT a Shih-poo… he actually has NO poodle DNA at all 😬 He’s 51% Bichon Frisé, and 49% Shih Tzu. We also received hundreds of health markers and a couple of notables to be aware of for his health and longevity. We easily provided a report to our Veterinarian ahead of our upcoming check-up, and feel at peace knowing that we’ll be able to cater his care to his specific needs long-term (and that we know his actual breed). 🙌🏼🤣
