Dog Breed identification FAQ

Is this the same as a DNA test?

No. It is a visual breed estimate and cannot determine genetic ancestry or exact mix percentages.

Can mixed breeds be identified?

The tool can suggest visually similar breeds, but appearance alone cannot verify a mixed dog’s ancestry.

What photo works best?

Use a standing side or three-quarter photo that clearly shows the face, ears, coat, tail, and body proportions.
