Now here's a fascinating discussion on how we can test our dogs' DNA to determine things like age, breed, predisposition of different diseases and even certain behavioral traits. And these simple tests can be done from the comfort of your own home. Dr. Judy welcomes Dr. Matteo Pellegrini, a biophysicist and Founder of ProsperK9 and shares more about the difference between epigenetics and genetics, DNA methylation and what it can tell us about a dog, how that is measured and the future of genetic and epigenetic testing. There are so many wonderful applications to this testing. Learn more by listening in!
