We are thrilled to let you know that
Wisdom Panel MX just got better!
The Gold
Standard Our genetics team has been
working hard, enabling us to raise the bar on canine genetic identification.
Mars Veterinary is taking the industry's best in mixed-breed DNA analysis and
making it better. We are expanding our breed detection, further surpassing the
number of breeds identified by any
other canine genetics test available. From the American Foxhound to the
Black and Tan Coonhound, the newly updated
Wisdom Panel MX will detect 157 breeds that may be
present in a mutt, covering 153 of the 158 American Kennel Club (AKC) registered
dogs plus four breeds found on the AKC's Foundation List.
In addition to
this database expansion, Wisdom Panel MX will pinpoint breeds of a mixed-breed dog with an increased
accuracy level of 90%*. In fact, it is the only canine genetic
identification test supplying consumers with such accuracy
information.

Showing the
Love
Many of you might be asking
yourselves, "I already tested my dog with Wisdom Panel MX. How can I find out if
my dog has one of the new added breeds?" Well, we have a simple and inexpensive
answer that I'm sure you'll love!
Mars Veterinary has run an analysis
on all dogs that had a test administered from September 22, 2008 through October
20, 2008. Any dog that had a report that changed based on the new breed
expansion will receive a free updated report automatically. Owners that tested
their dog before September 22, 2008 can contact customercare@marsveterinary.com to request a new analysis. If any
of the new breeds appear, a new report will be sent out for just $25, to cover
the cost of printing and shipping the updated report.
If you have any questions about Mars
Veterinary's upcoming announcement or about the Wisdom Panel MX in general, just
BARK!
Sincerely,
Customer Care Mars
